A member asked:
Corneal abrasion, how long until it goes away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends : Depends on the size and the cause. Most traumatic abrasions heal in a day or two. If caused NT something toxic, infectious or neurotrophic, could take longer. At the very least, you should use a topical antibiotic to prevent a secondary infection.
