You would not have injured your eye this way, although moist heat is generally better than dry heating pads for improving comfort and treating minor problems. You need an examination by an ophthalmologist to rule out several maladies that could be causing your dry eyes and the other symptoms you describe. It is always better to deal with health concerns sooner to avoid worsening problems later.
