This dream brings to mind the New Testament parable about not removing a speck from someone else's eye before removing the log from your own eye. So the first thing to consider is whether the dreamer is being hypocritical in trying to correct a fault in someone else without correcting the dreamer's own fault.
Another possibility relates to sight in the literal sense. The subconscious mind might detect a physical problem with the dreamer's sight, such as cataracts that often are not noticed consciously until quite advanced. A check-up with the optometrist might be a good idea.
Yet another possibility would return to a figurative interpretation. A needle in the eye would be terribly irritating and interfere with one's ability to see. There may be something in the dreamer's life that is so irritating or extremely painful that it interferes with the dreamer's ability to "see" the situation clearly. Another, objective viewpoint is needed.
This dream could have a number of interpretations depending on the dreamer's circumstances. Very generally, it might represent the dreamer's anxiety about "tests", whether actual medical tests or, more symbolically, academic or professional tests, including annual evaluations or interviews. A different possibility might be some physical irritation, such as an insect bite "poking" the sleeper. Yet another possibility is that the dream could express the dreamer's feeling about some irritating person who keeps "poking" and "needling" the dreamer in real life.

....you answered your own question - it's called "threading a needle".
A needle (as in needle and thread) in a dream represents unfinished business and the need to gain control of one's surroundings. To dream of looking for a needle in a haystack, symbolizes useless worries over trivial matters.
