Eye problem

Hello,
My eyelashes grow in the wrong direction and everytime I wake up my lashes go into my eye and it's very painful.

It is called trichiasis.

And sometimes little bumps form on my waterline.

I'm scared of someone putting eye drops in my eye.

Helpp please
Doctors.

Aside: "trichiasis" is, apparently, Ancient Greek for 'don't Google me'.

I remember seeing something that if your eyelashes are curling the wrong way, its a huge symptom of an autoimmune disease that I cant remember. I suggest seeing a GP first thing tomorrow, if you can’t get to see a doctor soon then go to the hospital

I am going to the eye doctor tomorrow. I have seen that the only way to solve trichiasis is surgery .. I am so so scared and the doctor would put eye drops in my eye (fear of eye drops)
