Ryan told : “It’s disgraceful.
“The guy walked over to me and belted me for no reason, knocking me to the floor.
“It was completely unprovoked and I didn’t retaliate at all.
“I had two friends with me from the Lake District – it was their first time in Manchester and I wanted to show them a good time. Instead they ended up covered in blood.
“Other people on the dance floor ended up with blood all over them too.”
He added: “I’ve been told I’ll need stitches, and it’s possible I have a broken eye socket.
“It’s not acceptable – I can’t open my eyes properly, I can’t work, and all he gets is a caution.
“People in the club were horrified after having to watch what happened.”
Greater Manchester Police confirmed they were called to the club at 2.53am on Saturday morning.
Chief Inspector Phil Spurgeon says common assault cases suspects are eligible for a caution if they have no previous convictions or criminal history.
He added: “A caution is not a ‘soft option’. The individual gets a ‘police record’ which impacts on them in all sorts of ways, including employment, education, travel.
“I understand that incidents like these affect people in different ways and victim support services are available.”
Ryan's beauty addiction began after he was dumped by his girlfriend of 12 years.
He spends £1,000 on his looks every month - including cosmetics, Botox and tanning injections.
He previously told the : “When we split up it completely knocked every bit of confidence I had in myself.
“So I sold her stuff and used the money to pay for Botox and tan injections.
“Until that point I’d never done anything for myself, it’d all been for her. I never drank, I worked six days a week to keep a roof over our heads.
“I had a tough start in life and was adopted by my grandparents when I was young, I never had the finer things, and despite working in fashion and cosmetics I always looked on from the other side.
“After we broke up I decided that was it, I wanted the glamorous life and I was going to get it.
“I started making myself look perfect to find myself a new woman and pursue a career in modelling.”
Ryan's beauty regime
• Fake tan - Twice a day
• Tan injections - Twice a month
• Botox - Most months
• Sun bed - Almost daily
• Teeth whitening machine - Every night
• Clothes and cosmetics shopping - £1,000 a month
• Time to get ready each morning - Two hours
Ryan was dubbed "Britain's vainest man" after it was revealed he shrunk his FEET in his quest for perfection.
He used the ancient Chinese method of binding to squeeze his size 10 feet to a size 6 and a half - because his "clown feet" didn't look good with his tailored trousers.
He added: “It just didn’t look right.
“People think what I’ve done has made my feet look all weird and horrible but they don’t. There’s a few lumps and bumps but they look normal.
"And it wasn’t painful, uncomfortable at times yes but it never stopped me doing anything or working.”
Another woman on the Channel 5 programme spent over £50,000 on surgery in her quest to look perfect.
