Try washing it out with optrex eye wash or similar, these will clean it and hopefully soothe it too. Does it still hurt or is it just red?

In that case, just use the eye wash regularly and hope for the best! It might take a few days to go down. If you start getting any oozing or anything, or it's not gone within a week or so, then you might want to see your GP but for now just invest in some sunglasses and look mysterious :wink:

Best thing is to wait funny enough. Try washing your eye in water. But other than that your eye will do its job and clear it out in a few days.
Wash your eyes under cold water for a bit and keep out of strong sunlight for a bit , then your eyes should get back to normal.
Eyes, contrary to popular belief, are tough little bastards. give it time to sort itself out, since it doesn't hurt.

We had to cut up a goats eye in biology, it was touch as hell. It was cool when we mangled the lens out, though, cause we could put it in a petri dish with water and it acted like a little magnifying lens. Cute little goat.

Whenever I get something in my eye they always go red, personally they heal up faster if I don't put any drops or water in them at all, or rub them.

Use optrex infected eyes, eye wash. This eye bath will help to clean out your eyes, from anything that has made your eyes hurt/irritated.

Optrex do an eye drop for red eyes. Go to your local pharmacy to find out, its basically a vasoconstrictor which will reduce the redness.

As long as your eye is only red in the white part thats fine (sclera). If the red is in the iris then see your doctor.

Stop smoking draw and then putting sun cream in your eye.
