Will The Poking Cause Major Damage To Eye?

I got poked in the eye yesterday playing basketball. I very little pain, just a little soreness, but my contact seems to dry out faster causing a little discomfort. Have I done major damage to my eye? I called me eye doctor and was told as long as I have no pain or vision problems I would be fine. Thanks

It might have damaged contact lens. You need complete eye checkup, vision fundus examination. Any problem detected should be treated.
