A member asked:

Yesterday, I must have gotten something in my eye when doing a home project. It was likely a piece of wood or a paint chip. I should have been wearing eye protection. Hindsight is 20/20 (OK, bad dad joke). This morning, my upper eyelid is swollen, red, and sensitive to the touch. My vision seems to be fine. At what point would I need to be seen? I have been flushing with eye drops and cold compress. Anything else I should do? eye injury?
