What to do about an ingrown eyelash?

Hello. Your best solution is to apply warm compresses to the affected eyelid. Take a clean towel and apply as much warm water as you can tolerate. Apply for 10 minutes, several times a day. The towel will cool during this time, so it is important to reapply water to keep it warm. Many sources mention that the eyelash can be removed with tweezers but given the sensitive area, if you are not able to do so I strongly suggest that you make an appointment with an optometrist who can help you

We look forward to hearing from you!
