Suggest Treatment For Pain In Eye After Accidentally Poking It

My daughter poked her eye with a mascara wand this morning and I put some refresh liquigel in her eye when she got home along with 2 Tylenol. Still some pain and blurred va. Not sure if it is a corneal abrasion but can she wait until tomorrow to be seen by an ophthalmologist since offices are closed now?

HI..
Welcome to HCM..
There could be a corneal abrasion..
You can continue using refresh liquigel and along with that a lubricating eye ointment like lacrigel for speedy recovery during night.
She should not rub her eyes..
All that is needed is rest to the eye till you see the doctor..
Take care..
