What can happen when an eyelash goes too far back your eye?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Eyelash: If an eyelash curls back to touch the eyeball it can be a source of irritation. You may need to have the eyelash removed.

Nothing bad: The eye has natural mechanisms to remove lashes which it does on a daily basis. A lash cannot to "too" far back and will not damage the eye no matter what.
