Do you really have to give up the chance at a "W" to get a player who can see out of both eyes in the game?
In this situation, hope your 4 can get the rebound. Personally, I wouldn't stop the game.

Had a similar situation in a freshman girls game last week. Except, it was about a minute into the game, and the girl who the coach said was injured was playing defense. Obviously the injury was not severe, since neither of us even noticed it. Coach complained to my partner that he was expecting an injury timeout. Also, the game ceased being close about 45 seconds in.
