What to do if laundry detergent accidentally falls into your eyes

When laundry detergent accidentally falls into the eyes, patients need to deal with it through timely cleaning and medication (levofloxacin hydrochloride eye drops, etc.). 1. Prompt cleaning: Since most laundry detergents contain alkaline substances, they can irritate the patient’s eyes. After the laundry detergent gets into the eyes, patients need to avoid rubbing the eyes repeatedly with their hands, and need to flush the eyes with water immediately to clean the laundry detergent inside the eyes, and rotate the eyeballs to rinse the laundry detergent as much as possible when cleaning. 2. Medication: If there is still eye pain, foreign body sensation and other symptoms after flushing, it may have caused damage to the conjunctiva or cornea. Patients need to consult the doctor in time, follow the doctor’s instructions to use recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor ophthalmic gel, levofloxacin hydrochloride eye drops and other medications, to promote repair of the damage and anticipate infection. It is recommended that patients with foreign bodies in the eye seek prompt medical attention to assess their condition and actively cooperate with their doctors for treatment.
