Smacked my eye while closed with my fingertip

I was smacking my face to wake me up a bit from a nap. While doing this, my eye was closed and I accidentally forcefully, with my fingertip, hit my closed eye. either heard or felt a little blop, and now my eyeball hurt. I don't see anything wrong with it but my eye hurts a lot. Is there anything I can do for the pain, should I go see the doctor?

Okay start by never doing this again. For the pain if you still have it you can take an oral pain med like tylenol or asprin. You can use cold compresses to the closed eye. If painful or blurry tomorrow see an ophthalmologist.
