You should be an Ophthalmologist immediately.
You likely have a corneal abrasion, which is a scratch on the front surface of the eye. Please see an ophthalmologist. SO
You need to treat this injury.
You need to see an ophthalmologist in the office within 24 hours. This is most likely a corneal abrasion. There could be a secondary infection that can cause permanent vision impairment. You will need medication to help the abrasion heal and reduce pain and inflammation, even if there is no infection.
