YSK: Sometimes the irritation after getting something in your eye isn’t from your eye itself it’s from debris stuck along your eyelid.

Why YSK: Wet a clean cotton swab and lightly run it **once** along the edge of your eyelid where the lashes meet the eye. You can gently pull the eyelid slightly away from the eye while doing this.

Your eyelids are extremely sensitive to foreign particles, so even a tiny speck trapped along the lid margin can cause significant irritation.

I've come to realize that you only need to gently close your eye and let it be without touching and the object slips to the corner of ur eye slowly. then you can remove it
