you can buy eye wash kits. they are cheap, have lubricated water in them, and usually have several uses per kit.

Keep your eyes shut for a few minutes the way your eyes work the eyelids will push it into the corner of your eye and it will fall out. Just like why you get crust in the corners of your eyes when sleeping Tried and true. But doesn't work for anything large just things like small rocks or wood debris. I've even gotten metal shards out by staying calm and simply shutting my eyes until I feel it has gone to the corner. Eye drops help this process too. I sound like my mother oh no.

You might consider carrying a bottle of saline eye drops with you. Naturally, you'll want to avoid rubbing your eyes when this happens.

I used a q-tip to remove metal that somehow got past my safety glasses when cutting steel on several occasions. I'm sure it would work on anything as long as you can see it in a mirror.

i thought i had eyedrops but i don't. guess i have to either look in my bags somewhere, or pick some up.
i thought it was gone, but the bloody thing is still there! i have a polished and smooth/rounded piece of metal that in no way will scratch my eye and im trying to get it out.
this is so annoying
i tried closing my eyes today but it didn't help much

It it's a piece of metal, you might want to consider using an eyewash station somewhere, or picking up an eye wash bottle.

If you can see it, you should be able to get it out.
What often works for me, if the eye wash station doesn't, is holding my eyelids open until it burns and my eyes start to water, then blinking rapidly for a long time and letting the tears wash the culprit out. Doing that a couple of times usually works.

thanks guys 
is it possible that a grain or eyelash or other particle got in my eye and scratched the surface? i heard somewhere that if that happens, a scratch will often feel like a particle has gotten stuck

That is quite possible.
If you saw the culprit though and it definitely came out, I'd give it a few hours for the inflammation to go down before you determine that it's definitely scratched.

I've had a rock in my eye for 4 days now, and it's starting to get really annoying.

Get an eye cup.Fill it will plain water and hold cup over your eye. Blink your eye in the eye cup water.That will do it.
