Sorry to hear about Doremon. Thanks for sending the pictures. It appears there is trauma above the eye. Don't apply anything topically to the wound without a veterinary visit first and their recommendations. At home, gently cleaning with a moist warm water cloth might help. Monitor appetite. Try to keep him warm. If Doremon starts to squint or the eye appears worse, make an appointment to see a veterinarian.
