Boston Celtics center Kelly Olynyk may have difficulty seeing the floor in Wednesday's pivotal clash against the Indiana Pacers

Olynyk suffered a swollen-shut black eye after taking an inadvertent elbow to his face from teammate Shavlik Randolph during shootaround. It looked painful.

He decided to plug through, entering the game late in the first quarter. 

The Celtics and Pacers entered the game as the ninth- and 10th-place teams, respectively, in the crowded Eastern Conference playoff race.
