I've got something stuck in my eye, what should i flush it out with?

Eye wash: Various eye rinse products are available over-the-counter at most pharmacies. Even water from your tap is fine. If you are not able to remove it quickly you should seek care from an ophthalmologist. The longer of foreign body remains in the eye the more likely it is to become infected.
