16 months ago, i had an iphone 6 with a screen that swelled up. i kept it in a bag pocket for about 2 weeks. today, i opened a theratears sterilid antimicrobial eyelid cleanser. then it touched the same pocket for a few moments. is it safe to use?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: The cleanser was contaminated by contact with the bag (no matter what it contained.) Do not use it.
