Washing your eye out with plenty of water was the correct thing to do. Hot cooking oil can burn your cornea. You should be examined by an ophthalmologist ASAP if you're experiencing eye pain. If you can't see an ophthalmologist in your local ER,now, go to an EYE&EAR emergency room at an academic center where 24 hour coverage is available.
