Windows 10: How do I sign in with when I can't access the screen to input the pin?

I used the wrong pin trying to log in as I had poor vision due to drops in my eyes, I know the correct pin but I can't get back to the sign in screen? The computer is locked, how do I sign in now? I get the screen saver but can't get beyond it to sign in.
