Hello
It seems from the history that you have underwent a surgery for removal of piece of metal which has penetrated the eye.
This is because of inflammation associated with surgery. Hence I advice you to use eye drops and other medications as advised by your doctor.
You can use analgesics for pain relief as of now.

Thank you
