OK buddy...

... just be sensible.

If there is any deterioration - see a Dr.

You commented "if they are open"
Notice you are in the UK.

**Most GP surgeries in the UK will be closed monday and tuesday Bank Holiday.
So Out of hours GP is what covers them.

1) There is always an Out of Hour (OOH) GP service.
Normally if you call your own GP - it will play a message saying they are closed and give you instructions on how to contact the OOH service or may just put you through.
If any difficulties - call NHS direct and ask for your local OOH GP.

2) Another option is to attend a local Eye Casualty - but really depends where you are and what their opening hours are like.

3) Lastly A&E/Casualty is always open 24/7 - so if you have difficulties with the above - get someone to take you there (ie don't drive as a) it is not safe, b) they may put a pupil dilator drop for examination).

Take care.
