What is the best way to treat an mild acetone chemical burn in the eye?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"If acetone gets into the eyes, flush them immediately with large amounts of water for 15 minutes, lifting the lower and upper lids occasionally. Get medical attention as soon as possible. Contact lenses should not be worn when working with this chemical." Don't delay in seeing an ophthalmologist as quickly as possible or go to the nearest emergency dept as soon as possible.
