A member asked:

I hurt my eye trying to put in contact while ago so took it out wearing glasses will it heal on its own tried ziadator drop still hurting little ?

Scratch?: You may have scratched your cornea. Use non preserved tears purchased over the counter every hour until symptoms fade. Don't put contacts in until you are symptom free and your eye looks normal. If not better in a day you should have it checked by eye doc, as these injuries may result in infection.
