Welcome to Yorkie Talk. I'm sorry Chloe was injured. Max has experience with corneal ulcers, but his were shallow. The ulcer usually heals very fast, sometimes overnight, but meds are usually continued for 7 to 10 days.
A deeper, more serious ulcer usually takes 1 to 2 weeks to heal. The vet should re-check her eye in 1 week, and probably again at 2 weeks.
I found that fresh, cool air helped Max heal. Also, waiting at least 3 weeks to bathe his head. His last ulcer was more complicated and I waited 6 weeks to bathe his head.
I would put an e-collar on her to prevent her from rubbing and scratching her eye. The meds can sting a little at first and the eye can become itchy.
Best wishes for your baby.
