    Default turpentine in eye

    I was cleaning a paintbrush earlier and flicked turps in my eye.

    I rinsed it with water, but it is still a little uncomfortable.

    Is there anything else I should do?

    Talking 20 Minutes

    Makka,
    How is your EYE this morning?

    A Bit late, but did you keep washing it for 20 Minutes;
    that "seems" to be the Standard,
    20Min is not long,
    but when one is washing a part of their body which has been contaminated, 20 Minutes can seem like Half the morning.
    I know,
    I once washed a part of my body for 20 Minutes
    and Yes,
    it did come off:eek:

    It was Caustic NaOH [Aq] on my Back from where I had brushed against some superstructure in an Bauxite refinery :mad: :mad:

    OUCH!!!!!:eek: :eek:

    Thankyou for your reply, I felt like such a dork. I only washed for 5 mins, and not all at once.

    My eye didn't fall out, thank god.
