Suggest Treatment For A Cut On Eyelid

I tripped and cut my eyelid right in the crease on the coffee table. It has been four days since me being a clutz. It is a little black and seems to be healing. I have been cleaning it with soap and water as well as putting triple anti biotic on it. Is that ok. Or should I see a doctor

Important care in case of wound is keep the wound clean, antibiotic only given in case of infection, if no infection is there then no need to have antibiotic, no medicines is there that could facilitate healing, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
