I have had that happen before. I would wait for her to shed again and see what it looks like. When this happened to me, it went away after another shed or two. If you got the eye shed off, I definitely would not try to remove another layer.

When I get stuck sheds over the eye, I generally use a pair of tweezers to grab it off (very carefully). I have also heard of people using tape, but I havn't had luck with that.
