Wash your eyes with freshwater frequently and rub this area with tip of your finger. Put antibiotics eye drops 2hrly e.g. moxifloxacin after rubbing.

1. Do not share eye cosmetics 2. When eye irritation persists, stop using eye cosmetics until it regresses. 3. Use copious preservative free lubricating eye drops 4. Do not wash your eyes with tap water as it (unless some chemical falls in the eye) increases dry eye and raises risk of infection. 4. Best to consult an eye specialist to rule out underlying dry eyes and allergy and get that treated.
