Rinsed eye: As long as you rinsed your eye well, and you are not having pain you should be fine. If you start to have symptoms of pain later, eye redness that will not go away, or you have changes in your normal vision you should go to the hospital. If you are having no symptoms, you likely rinsed your eyes quickly enough that there will be no lasting harm. I definitely recommend wearing safety goggles! :)

I got a drop of Listerine in my eye. I immediately rinsed it, even though I had no burning or irritation, but after rinsing it, the eye got red. Is that from tap water or from the mouthwash?
