Usualy, it goes away on its own almost immediately. If it's been bothering the person for awhile, then they really should see an optometrist or their GP at the earliest convenience There might been enough damage to the eye that it needs medical attention, and untreated eye conditions can eventually result in a big loss of vision. In the short-term, though, I'd suggest wearing some sunglasses and taking some Tylenol, Advil, or Aleve. If the eye-pain returns after that, then see a doctor.
