1. I beleive so: It may be a poisninous plant! Check using Yahoo! or Google.
2. If the plant has irritating juices, then his eye could be sore. He also could be having an alergic reaction to the plant. Or it could just be an infected eye. You should take him to the vet before damage is irreversible.

4. Yes, lots of plants are irritants and some can actually kill your animals. I would call poison control and see what they say, or call your vet. I hope its just an irritant and goes away soon. Good luck.
5. Yes, and I think your dog might be allergic to it. Either that or maybe the liquid is sticky, I might be holding your dogs eye closed.
6. Don't hesitate, take him to the vet! Good luck!
7. Visit his vet.
8. yes.
9. Maybe he should be seen by a vet? Have you tried to wash out his eye? I would call my vet first thing in the morning.
10. Yes. Call your vet. Some plants are highly poisonous to dogs- like poinsettias and oleanders. Poison enter the body any way it can-throough the mouht, the skin or even an eye.
