A member asked:

Can u get herpes if your walking and someone spits in your eye? i was walking in the city and someone did accidentally they had sores on their mouth and i am very worried if i can contract hsv-1 or eye herpes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Although technically possible, it is very unlikely, since you don't even know whether the person was hsv positive to begin with. For your comfort, see a dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate testing for hsv.
