Dog's eye brown, can't see. Pharmacy treatment without a vet?

Question

Hello. My dog fought with oter dogs a few days ago and scratched one of his eyes. Now the eye is brown and he can't see anything with it. I do not have acces to a veterinary where i live. Is there some substance that I could get from a pharmacy that I can treat him with? I cannot find him right now to take some photos as he wanders around in the yard or in the neighborhood but I will as soon as I can. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | 14 lbs

If you can't get to a veterinarian, the best you can do is to keep this eye comfortable and lubricated. See if your pharmacy can give you human eye lubricant drops or gel that is designed to keep the eye moist, and put this in the eye several times daily. Even a human antibiotic eye ointment would work well, if you can get that. Then all you can do is hope that the eye can heal itself with time.
