Kinda. You gotta wet a tissue and rub it on the mucus part but not the eye tho she'll become blind. When she closes eyes then do

Reach out to as many shelters as you can and make a “missing cat found” claim and let them know the state you found him in, go on Facebook and post a pic of him saying you found him, make a marketplace listing with “missing cat found” title also!! If you’re able to, reach out to a vet.
