Bleach fumes: Leave the area and ventilate it to allow the fumes to resolve. Flush the eyes with artificial tears. If persistent ocular symptoms, see an eye doctor.

Acute chemical react: Make sure that there are no residual fumes present and the area is ventilated. This should get better shortly, but if there are any breathing problems or worsening ssk immediate help. Using cool wash clothes on your eyelids should help. If yo are sure that none got in your eyes directly this should be slef limiting.

Fumigate: This can be serious bleach burns are far worse than acid burns. Fumigate and irritate. Then consider a md visit.
