Yes, fiber glass has many warnings on it and safety precautions such as eyewear and gloves should be worn when in contact with this material.
Keep rinsing!

There may be a particle that you cannot see in there. Go to an ER or doctor soon. It is possible what you’re feeling is just a scratch on your cornea, but better safe than sorry. Those are the only eyes you have!

I would think so..since its still glass. But any dust can scratch your cornea but I would think glass would be more painful and dangerous then regular ol’ dust.

Call a doctor, we cannot give you medical advice because…well we dont have a doctorate. BTW…as bad as your eye is I would also worry about your lungs. Glass can tear up your lungs and cause all sorts of trouble.

The worst thing that could happen is that it could permanently damage your eye and you could go blind.
