Eye has been red for two days, today i noticed a white spot. my eye doctor is closed tomorrow , if this is an ulcer will i be okay until thursday?

Could be an ulcer: It sounds like you have had this experience before. Ulcers occur on the cornea, especially in relationship to contact lens overwear. Take the lens out and keep the eye clean. If you have left over antibiotics from your previous experience, it is best to start them. If the condition gets at all worse, then see another eye doctor for evaluation and treatment.
