eyelash regrowth

When I was a teenager, I had a nervoud habit of pulling on my eyelashes. At one point, they were pretty much all gone. They have since grown back, but are much thinner. Oftentimes they hurt (?) and I will rub them and they will fall out. I don't pull on them like I did when I was a kid, but my fear is that the hair follicles have been damaged and soon they will stop growing in alltogether. Is this something I should fear? Or will they always grow back? How long does an eyelash take to grow in?

Thanks!
