how do i know if my eye is scratched?


Question:
i think i may have scratched it with my fingernail while i was asleep. my vision is blurry in one eye. is it scratched or is there something (eyelash) in there?

Answers:
I don't know, but I know that when you scratch an eye, it hurts so much you almost can't open it. If you can open it, then try to see it in the mirror very carefully. An eyelash can be easily found. But don't press it or open it with your hands or try to take the eyelash out!! If you can't even open your eye, then it can be more serious. You should see a doctor.

Other Answers:
your eye Doctor will tell you
If it persists more than a couple of hours and you can't see anything there, go and see a doctor.
If it is scratched it will be red and you will feel uncomfortable as if sand or an eye lash is there. Go to the doctor immediately if your eye is red.You need to too because you have a blurred vision, a simple lash would not do that.
it will be VERY red and irritated, and won't go away until you see a Doctor. A eyelash will come out on its own within an hour usually
lift your eyelid up or try some eyedrops or call your doctor
maybe just an eyelash
