What should I do if my hair falls out of my eyes?

If hair falls into the eye, the most common treatment is to ruffle the eyelid and use cleaner water to flush it. It’s best if you have sterile saline nearby, and use sterile saline to rinse without causing an eye infection. If such saline is not available, you can also use boiled, cooled white water for flushing, which can often be rinsed out in the vast majority of cases. However, if the head is deeper and the foreign body sensation is heavier, it is not recommended to handle it at home on your own, as forcing it out may lead to corneal damage. In this case, it is recommended to go to the hospital and have the hair removed by a doctor under a slit lamp, which can be precise and will not damage the corneal epithelium. If the epithelium has been damaged, antibacterial medication or medication that nourishes the cornea is needed to promote healing of the epithelium. Often, if the hair can’t be removed at home, going to the hospital is a better way to deal with the problem.
