What is the general rule for treatment of a superficial foreign body in the eye?
If the foreign body is visible and not imbedded in the sclera, cornea, or conjunctiva, flushing the eye with sterile water or sterile saline, with the patient facing down, seems to work well. Somewhat off track, iron or ferrous filings can be removed with a strong magnet. You can also try lifting the upper eyelid out and then down, over the lower eyelid, in hopes of "scrubbing" it out. If neither method works, consider an ER. Note that penetrating injuries to the eye are always treated as an emergency.
Can you go blind by scratching the inside of your eye lid?
Probably not - the inside of the eyelid is covered in squamous stratified epithelial cells that will generally regenerate and not cause damage to the cornea or the rest of the eye. However, if a foreign body is stuck between the eye and the eyelid, the foreign body (such as a hair or a piece of glass) can work its way into the eye and eventually cause blindness.
