Eye got Scratched by finger nail

2018-06-24 14:27:40
My baby while playing accidentally poked my wife's eye with it's finger nail and the eye is watery since then (for the past 8 hours) and also vision of that eye is slightly blurry. Being Sunday, we could locate any optomologist. However someone at a optics shop had a review and conveyed that there doesn't seem any kind of wound. Any suggestion please.
