Suggest Treatment For Swelling Redness And Pain On Eyes

Last night I found that I had a hair behind my lower eyelid (possibly from my dog)--I removed my contacts, flushed with water, and everything seemed to be okay. Just slight irritation that I thought was related to the flushing. This morning, my eye is very red, lower lid is swollen, eye is painful, and has a jelly-like blob in the right corner. What has happened to my eye?

hair of dog in your eye is foreign body for your eye. it might not have gone out. so better get it checked by eye doctor if it is still there then he will remove it. Now it should be properly flashed with water and apply cromal eye drop 3times daily. take levocetrizine 5mg tablet daily for 1o days. slowly redness will go.
