Please consult an eye surgeon for a complete evaluation to rule out any abrasion of the ocular surface tissues. Since the magnitude of trauma is not known a possibility of retinal oedema in future is also to be assessed. Medication without complete diagnosis may be injurious

Since it's a sharp object, your eyes should be examined for minor tears and vision has to be checked.
Next Steps
apply cold compresses.
Consult offline for further detailed evaluation and treatment.
