hay poke without symptoms?

yesterday when i was putting the guinea pigs into their carrier, donna ran into the hay bag and got a bunch of tiny hay pieces on her face. i tried brushing them off but i think some got on her eyes/into her eyelids:( this morning, my dad sent me these pictures:

he also said she doesn't seem to be in any discomfort. i'm wondering if we should still get donna tested for hay poke or she blinked the hay out herself?
 
If the eye is bright, normal, not watering and not cloudy then there is no haypoke/damage.

If the eye goes cloudy then hay did poke the eye and ulceration is setting in so you should see a vet at that point.
