I was in the same sitatuation and although told by my doctor that it would be fine, I still checked with my ophthalmologist who also told me it would be OK. So I went ahead and I don't believe it made any difference. It's just a one off, after all

I too would say it should be ok. If you want to get your eye pressure measured afterwards to check, you could ask if they will do it at your opticians. This is just to put your mind at rest, should you need to.
