What Causes Tingling And Numbness In The Hand After Using Eye Drops?

I am 57 year old female and was driving today when suddenly noticed in right eye black curly lines in vision appearing to be floating back and forth in front of me. I tried eye drops for redness and then eyewash with water many times. Is less but still there. Also feel tingling and numbness in right hand but realize I was gripping the wheel with left while dealing with right eye.
