A member asked:

I was working with an equipment wen some chemical splashed on my eye i was taken to the hospital and they washed my eye and poured an eye drop on it but when i came home it's even paining me more please what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Patience: I am sure the chemical was not corrosive and did not break down the surface of the eye or they would have sent you immediately to an ophthalmologist. So you probably have some chemical, superficial damage to the cornea, a very sensitive tissue, which will replace itself in 24 hours. If you are not feeling well by the next day, see your ophthalmologist.
