Hi
The cause of sharp pain in your eye lid could be due to Stye. At present you might be having some pain in eye lid. I think you should avoid going to pool, put some antibiotics eye drops available at OTC like soframycin eye drops, local heat therapy to lid with sponge, take some OTC pain killer and if not cured then consult your ophthalmologist.
