I was rinsing my mouth with mouthwash. there was some mouthwash left in the cap. for some reason i moved my hand resulting in the mouthwash hitting my eye. the brand is listerene. i did a quick rinse but worried about damage to my eye?

Would rinse with water/ sterile saline for several minutes. Should be OK. if persistent blurriness, pain redness, discharge follow up with urgent care or MD.

Optrex eye rinse is a valuable household remedy for such occasions, but should irritation persist please go to your doctor. The fact that you could get this far and post a question would seem to indicate that you are past the stage where you should be worried.
