Suggest Remedy For Scratch In Eye By Kitten

My kitten just scratched my eye, epithelial part I believe is what its called. The scratch is on the upper part on iris above pupil. It is small, however, I do need to know if I should see a doctor. I do tend to get paranoid when it comes to my eyes, as I imagine many do and should. I can only see the abrasion in just the right light. Any advice?

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Well I read your history. I would like to inform you not to panic you more but still its advisable to takean Ophthalmologist consultation since kitten scratch can lead to many ocular diseases... If its case of subtle scratch then it ll be alright by the end of week or two by putting simply lubricating eye drops 1-2 hourly...
For any further query you can contact me directly.
