I've been having this weird recurring problem with my eyes - I wake up and get the same kind of ow "something scratched my eye" feeling that used to happen sometimes when I was sleeping with a baby and they'd wave a hand into my face in their sleep - I did actually once get a corneal scratch that way. But nothing had happened. And it happens several times a week, and sometimes happens during the day, too. I've been thinking I ought to try to find some way to get myself to an eye doctor and ask about it, although I don't know if they'll be able to tell me anything.
I recommend getting it checked out. See an ophthalmologist, not an optician. They may refer you to a corneal specialist. (Hey, it's better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick--take it from one who knows!)

I can't really say "I know how you feel". And I kind of hope it stays that way, frankly.
But. Regardless. Massive huge sympathies for the suckitude. *hugs*
