Is there any swelling or bleeding? Can she open her eye?
The best bet is always to take her into the vet but if it's the middle of the night where you are, it should be able to wait till morning. Treat it as you would a human in the meantime (BUT DON'T GIVE HER HUMAN MEDICINE), bit of (wrapped-up) ice on any swelling and a bit of vaseline on a bleeding cut will be fine. She may need to get eyedrops from the vet if it's swollen shut.

Unless it's swollen and bloody, I'd just watch her and if you can, put a warm cloth on her eye. You could add a little borax to the water if you like. If there is any damage to the eye, you'll be able to see it.

once there was this new kitten at some friend's house, and some lady accidentally kicked it because it happened to be everywhere. we visited later when it grew up, and its eye was eventually blacked out. the same may happen to ur cat.

well check to see if it hurts somewhere when you touch her. if her eye seems to be bloody and swollen than i suggest take your cat to the vet.
