Eye Hurts :(

It figures, I've been very good about keeping my grubby fingers out of my eyes so that they don't get infected or anything... but today they were crusted with "sleepy's" and I had to brush them off and get them out of the corner of my eye so that I could actually see. Well now the corner of my left eye is watering and kinda huring :( I can't have infected eyes next month. How am I going to deal with sleepy's???
