Getting a speck in your eye can be uncomfortable, but often you can remove it using simple techniques. Based on helpful tips, here are a couple of methods you can try to dislodge a speck from your eye.
Simple Techniques for Speck Removal
If you feel a speck in your eye, try these steps:
-
Method 1: Utilize Eye Movement
- Look up.
- While looking up, move your eye around in a circle.
- Benefit: This action is intended to help move the speck from the inner part of your eye towards the outside lid, making it potentially easier to remove or allowing natural tears to flush it out.
-
Method 2: Assist with a Finger
- Ensure your hands are clean.
- You can take your finger.
- Then, blink on it. (This suggests using your finger near the edge of the eyelid to perhaps gently guide or assist the blinking action in removing the speck).
These methods focus on using natural eye movements or gentle assistance to help the speck move out of a sensitive area or be expelled by blinking. Always be gentle when dealing with your eyes.
