While i was making bacon a little drop of oil got into my eye. it burned for a minute and got blurry but now i feel ok. what should i do?

If you have : No sensation of foreign body, pain, redness, or discharge, the oil most likely did not hit the surface of eyeball. If these symptoms don't appear, i think you will be ok.

Nothing: As long as the eye is not red or painful and the vision is normal, there is nothing that you need to do.
