Hi ! Toby’s wound in itself is just superficial and could be cleaned with some sterile solution (saline) or very diluted betadine. I am not sure if his eye is not affected and I would recommend to have it checked over, as there is a little graze just under the lower eye lid too. Hope it is nothing to worry about !
