I woke up about 20 minutes ago and I had a horrible pain in my eye. I went to the mirror to check it out and it's an eyelash, but it's stuck in the corner of my eye, the part called the Conjunctiva, were it's red. I think it may have been like this all night while I slept because my eye has gone all red.
It's stuck from the corner and goes underneath my eyelid. It's come off so I can't really pull it out or anything. I don't know what to use to get it because it's really right in there. The only thing that I can think of to try and get it out is a pin but I seriously hope there is some other way than doing that.
Some one please help! I've just resorted to keeping it shut and holding my finger down on it to stop the pain!!! What do I do???

Tried washing my eye out like some suggest but it's still there. Stuck right behind the eye lid and goes around my eye ball. 6 AM, I doubt there's any eye doctors open now.

Go turn on the shower at a low setting, at room temperature. Stand under it holding your eyelids open with your fingers. Wash that thing out of there.
If you have scratched your cornea, you may wind up taking the day off lying in a dark room.
Good luck with that.

Get some rinsing solution at the store. DO NOT use ANYTHING (objects) on your eye. You might have a scratched cornea(severe pain) if this is possibilty go to the doctor and have them help you.

try washing it out of your eye. Use a small cup or lid and just keep flushing it with water. If that doesn't work, try using a cotton swab, but be careful. The eyewash should do it.

Get yourself to your doctor or minor injury clinic and they will wash it out for you.
DO NOT USE A PIN.

Spend some money and see a doc if it's that bad or go to an ER.
