A general rule: is to IRRIGATE (wash) the eyes with cool clean clear water for several minutes following exposure to any liquid/cream etc which get in to eyes....very very small chance any damage from the cream you describe which contains an anti-fungal chemical..this would be TEMPORARY irritation .... Hope this is helpful Dr Z
