See a doctor : Please see a doctor to have your eyes examined. Metal (or any foreign substance) flakes can scratch your eye and it may feel like something is still in it. This needs medical attention to check for this...and may need antibiotic or other drops while it is healing. You will not be able to see this yourself.
