If someones sharp beard scratched my eyeball, will my eye be ok?

Scratch to eye: It may hurt quite a lot if the cornea has been scratched. Wash it out with a warm shower or bath and it should heal itself in a day or two. Any redness or oozing please seek medical attention.

Eye scratch: Your eye will probably be fine but if symptoms or any redness is noted must see ophthalmologist.
