hello
this could be foreign body in eye or something else also like viral conjunctivitis
It's very difficult to comment without proper evaluation
I would recommend you to consult local ophthalmologist for detailed evaluation

You should consult an ophthalmologist in clinic. If there is a foreign body in the eye, it needs removal. No eye drops can help in that case.
Next Steps
Please consult an ophthalmologist in clinic.

You can use eye drop teardrops 8 times a day for 2 days. But in case a foreign body is stuck inside, you'll have to get it removed by an ophthalmologist.
