Thanks for posting your query at HealthCareMagic. Based on the details that you have provided it is not clear about how much and what nature foreign bodies have lodged in your child s eye. It would have been further helpful if the child s age was mentioned. Children are unlikely to be cooperative when it comes to procedures requiring external manipulation. Most of the times the particles lodged in ones eyes come out on its own on repeated sprinkling with plain water. The foreign body sensation may still persist although the foreign body itself has come out. This is due to the small abrasions on the cornea or conjunctiva caused by it. In general the child is partly sedated by using drugs like Pedicloryl. At times general anaesthesia is also used so that the process of removal of the particles (if any) can be done unhindered. I hope that would help. Feel free to revert back in case of further queries if any.
