Corneal Abrasions-do I really need to see a Doc?

I poked myself in the eye 2 nights ago, and today I am still having pain in my eye when I blink, watering of the eye and the feeling like there is something lodged in my eye. I have read that it usually takes 24-48 hours to heal. I haven’t reached the 48 hour mark yet, but I’m hoping that it will continue to get better
