A member asked:

What should i do if i get baby oil in my eye?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Eye wash: While baby oil usually does not do any permanent damage to the eye, it can sting and be irritating. Flush the eye with water or eye wash for at least 15 minutes and if the eye is blurred or hurting, go to an emergency room.
