A member asked:
I accidentally got hydrogen peroxide in my left eye. i flushed it out with water. is it going to affect or damage my eye or vision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No problem: You did the right thing by flushing out your eye right away. Hydrogen peroxide can cause a mild keratitis if left untreated but will not enter the eye or cause any permanent change.
