What Causes Irritation In The Eyes Due To Paint?

I just managed to spray latex paint directly into both my eyes by holding the spray gun backward. I then flushed my eyes repeatedly with water, then again with preservative-free eye drops. My eyes are red an irritated but there is no severe pain. Do I need to seek emergency medical attention, or will setting up and appointment with my eye doctor do?
