Stop usng face cream: Always important to keep all face creams away from the eye area in particular as the mucous membranes inside the lids are sensitive to chemicals. Can be toxic. Can also affect your cornea too & create blurred vision. Need to have it removed safely. See ur eye doctor or PCP today to have them inspected, and to safely irrigate your eyelids. (Bring face cm in to see offending ingredients.)May need Rx

First rinse: First rinse the remnant face cream from your eyes using saline eye drops if you have it at home. If you eye are still burning after that, see your primary doctor or eye specialist for an examination and treatment.
