I just found out i have an eye ulcer on saturday what's the longest i should wait to see a eye specialist and im paying cash how much would it cost?

Don't wait: A corneal ulcer can cause permanent damage to your cornea. It can lead to more serious infection if left untreated. It can cause permanent vision loss, and more expensive cornea transplant surgery. It will likely require multiple visit to a qualified Eye MD. You can find one by searching at AAO.org. Many doctors will have a different fee for cash paying patients. Do not delay
