Should i be worried ? a bug or fly got into my eyes while walkin down the road . my eyes are slightly irritated but is it possible to get eye parasite? or its nothing to worry about ?

It is incredibly unlikely that you will get a parasitic infection from the encounter you describe. More likely there is just some irritation. Use some artificial tears to lubricate the eye for a day or two. If it's not better, see an ophthalmologist.
