I'm sitting here typing away at the keyboard, and suddenly *whamo* I blink a few times and then realize that there's something in my eye. Dust? Dirt? Hair? I have no idea, but I'm not really sure how to get it out. I tried flushing it out with water. Any other Ideas? :(:disgust:

edit: Okay maybe I shouldn't have posted the silly illustration, I'm serious here. My eye is buggin me ... its been almost 8 hrs now :( My mom wants me to go to the emergency room, but I have no insurance... :(

Maybe you have pinkeye.

That's one of the first symptoms, it feels like you have something in your eye but you can't get it out.

Went to the doctor and it turns out I have a minor Pink Eye infection. It could have become serious if I didn't catch it quicker, but should be ok now that I'm using antibiotic eyedrops.
