๐ข Eye Injury First Aid โ Quick Guide ๐๏ธ๐จ
If you get dust in your eye, donโt rub it. Blink or rinse with clean water. If it still hurts, see a doctor. In case of a chemical splash, rinse your eye with clean water for 15โ20 minutes while keeping it open, and seek emergency help immediately. For a blunt hit to the eye, gently apply a cold compress without pressure and watch for swelling, pain, or vision changes. If the eye is cut or punctured, donโt touch or wash it, and donโt try to remove anything stuck - cover it gently (like with a paper cup) and go to the ER. If thereโs an object stuck in the eye, avoid rubbing, stabilize the area, and get emergency care.
๐ Never apply pressure. When in doubt, get it checked out.
