I scratched my eye yesterday (hit eye with an eye dropper sachet). about 24 hours later, i cried very much. could this crying have caused any problems with the scratch or interfered with the scratchs healing process?

Clean lubrication: Your tears are clean natural lubrication. This will help the scratch to heal. This should improve in a couple of days. If this is not resolving or you develop significant drainage and matting of the eye you should be assessed.
