Baking soda ?'s: Baking soda is essentially harmless to eyes, but may cause some irritation/redness. If this persists, consult an ophthalmologist .

Unlikely: If you did not experience any immediate adverse effects, there is expectation of harm. If you have persistence redness or change in vision, you should see a doctor. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
