Brief Answer:
Foreign body sensation

Detailed Answer:
My dear
thanks for sending your query to us.
There are various spots in the eye whete a small foreign body may be lodged and they are difficult to dislodge. Before moving ahead you may be examined by a trained person to determine if there is a foreign body.If such facility is not available then you can ask any friend to examine the black of the eye and evert the eye lid and see if a particle is lodged there.
If no paticle is seen then you need lubricant eye drops 4-5times a day to relieve the symptoms.
Please do get back to me in case of any further query in this regard

Detailed Answer:
My dear,
, Thanksfor getting back to us.
As I have already mentioned there are lubricant eye drops available in the market by the name of Tears naturale, Refresh tears eye drops, ccs eye drop which can be put in 5-6times a day and in cases where there is no foreign body these are supposed to give quick relief.
still an examination by an expert is mandatory to rule out a particle.
The drops I mentioned are safe even for a long period of time.
Any further query in this regard please do get back to me.
