Should I see a doctor after being shot in the eye at close range with a Nerf Bullet?
I was trying to dislodge a bullet in brother's Nerf gun and looked down the barrel of it when it fired and hit me in the eye. The temple beside my eye is swollen but I can see and my eye is not red. It hurts to open and close my eye and to read; having the light on also irritates it. Should I go see a doctor even though my vision is not blurry?
Yes, if you google it you will see there are many reported serious eye injuries from nerf guns and toys. Don't go to family MD go to ophthalmologist Eye MD or optometrist.
