If you accidentally spray cleaner in your eyes, follow these steps:
Rinse your eyes immediately: The first and most crucial step is to flush your eyes with water. Use clean, lukewarm water to rinse out the chemical or cleaner. You can do this by gently tilting your head backward and using a steady stream of water from a faucet, shower, or eye wash station. You can also use a clean cup or a special eye cup to pour water into your eye while keeping your eye open.
Continue flushing for at least 15 minutes: It's essential to flush your eyes for an extended period to ensure the chemical is thoroughly rinsed out. Continue the process for at least 15 minutes, making sure that the water comes in contact with the entire eye surface and reaches all areas.
Seek medical attention: After rinsing your eyes, seek immediate medical attention. Even if your eyes feel better after rinsing, it's essential to have them checked by a healthcare professional to ensure no damage has occurred and to receive appropriate treatment if necessary.
Avoid rubbing your eyes: While rinsing your eyes, avoid rubbing them, as this may cause further irritation or damage.
Remove contact lenses: If you were wearing contact lenses when the accident occurred, remove them as soon as possible. Chemicals can get trapped between the lens and the eye, potentially causing further harm.
Avoid using other substances in your eyes: Do not put any other substances, like eye drops or ointments, in your eyes unless specifically instructed to do so by a medical professional.
Prevention is always better than cure, so when working with cleaning agents or chemicals, wear protective eyewear to reduce the risk of accidents.
