Will the eye surgery hurt while the surgeon is operating on me?

No. You may sometimes feel pressure or touch. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, the anaesthesia team will give you a painkiller to take away that feeling. You should never feel any pain. If you begin to feel pain, the anaesthesiologist will give you top-up treatment, both in the anaesthetised area and with the aid of sedation.
