Should The Hanging Skin Of Sclera Be Pulled Off?

Hi, my car scratched my eye yesterday, he got me from the very corner of my eye to the out leaving a cut, I thought he didn t get my eye but today I see that a pice of skin from my eye is cut off and hanging, it is still attached to my eye and it s only on the white part of my eye it didn t get anything else, what do I do ?, I see fine but the skin of the eye is hanging, do I just pull it off or do I go the emergency room and have it checked by a doctor ?

Hello--you definitely need to have this checked out since you'll nee antibiotic eye drops to cover you for an eye infection. Your vision is too important to try to deal with this on your own
