Attacked in a bar

Question Details:

Two weeks ago I was sucker-punched from behind at a bar. I received 3 broken bones around my eye socket. Two plates and screws were installed to reconstruct my face. I now have nerve damage and double vision. The incident was over something stupid. The guy that punched me had a choice to stay at the end of the bar or to attack me, well he attacked me. Prior to that we were bickering. I called the cops, and it was intially charged as battery, but later increased to an aggravated battery. He was arrested Thursday and charged; bond was set at $200,000. What will happen to him (he has priors)?  Also, what should l do about my extensive hospital bills?
