That depends on what is the position of ulcer, the size, or is there any organisms involved ?please do not treat yourself like that, what is required is a consultation with an eye doctor! may be you require only few lubricating drops to active management of the ulcer and finally may require" tarsorrhaphy" .ie, simply suturing your upper and lower lids together for some time .good luck and I wish you an early recovery.
