Answers:
Take him to your vet, sweetie. If he or she doesn't treat hamsters, ask if they can recommend a vet who does.
I'm sure your little teddy bear will be just fine. I'll certainly keep a good thought for him. And you.
You need to take him to the vet. There is always a risk of infection with cuts. The vet can give antibiotics to ensure that there is not infection. Be sure this is a small animal knowledgeable vet. Look for vets that specialise in exotics.

You need to separate the hamsters. Hamsters are solitary animals and need to be kept separate. They will kill each other over territory.
males separate them, they fight often
Hamster's eyes are tiny and very difficult to treat unless you're an expert. Why not take it to a vet?

If u really can't afford try wash the wound with cotton bud first and apply any type of iodine. (Must be for treating wounds NOT experiment iodine)
