Flush out powder!: When something gets in to your eyes, flush it out with cool water immediately. If you use ordinary tap water, that can cause some stinging. If you have saline solution, such as contact lens solution, that will be easier on your eyes. The amount you took in by mouth is pretty minimal and shouldn't cause any problems, If redness & irritation are present tomorrow, please get a complete eye exam
