Answer
If the cornea is scratched, that is really painful and it can cause deeper infection. That may be why the cat is not eating. You can try keeping it clean, but if the eye clouds up at all, get it to a vet.  Most vets will work with you if you tell them that you are broke.  We usually have medications that people return and we can't re-sell around the clinic to help animals whose owners can't afford the medicines.
