Answers:
If it's a minor scratch it will take 2-3 days, if it's worse it may take a week!. The eye has the fastest healing time of anywhere on the body!. The drops will probably be steroid drops to help heal faster or anti-biotic drops to prevent infection in the scratch!.

I had a cat scratch on my cornea and it only took 1 day for the pain to stop and 2 days to heal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I still say go to the doctor!. A scratched cornea can take weeks depending on severity of the scratch!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
