Q: i accidentally put ear drops in my eye and now my ear is hurting. what can i do? i have put water in my eye and also a cold rag. i am scare that my eye can be damage?

: What kind of ear drops. If after washing out your eyes with water, you still have discomfort, redness, or swelling, go to the nearest emergency room. Have a friend drive you or call an ambulance. It is unlikely that there will be permanent damage. Wish you good health!
