If you get something in your eye should you use eye drops or water?!


Question: If you get something in your eye should you use eye drops or water?
I was walking up the stairs and in the house and somebody at the top was mopping the floor, I felt some dirty water get in my eye, I do have a bottle of artificial tears but would it be better to use water.

Answers:

When there is a forign substance in the eye, be it solid, liquid, filthy mop water, whatever, you want to wash it out, not add a couple drops to it and have it remain in your eye.



water first, but if that doesn't work, try eyedrops. splash your face with water while blinking a lot and that should work. or put a cold washcloth to your eye. goodluck



i would prefer using water
