What to do if i hurt my eyeball will it heal by itself?

Hopefully: If the damage you did was slight, it probably will heal by itself. If the damage is great, if there is a risk of infection, or the vision is down, or the eye itself was penetrated, then you should see an ophthalmologist right away.
