Question

Something feels stuck in my left eye like an eyelash but I can't see anything there. My eye is irritated and uncomfortable. Can eyelids actually go inside the eye? How can I get relief at home without needing surgery?

Foreign body sensation could be due to a scratch or lodged particle. Use lubricating eye drops, avoid rubbing, and see an ophthalmologist if it persists beyond 24‚Äì48 hours.
