It is amazing to me how often we have to treat patients who somehow manage to get SuperGlue in their eyes.
Not red hot chili peppers, dirt clods or egg whites, but SuperGlue.
What do you do about superglue in the eyes?
My wife recently rubbed her eye after handling habanero peppers. That was fun.
My mom got me to the hospital pretty quickly and they were able to rinse it out without too much trouble. I had to wear a patch over my left eye for the next couple of days, but there wasn't any lasting damage.
The doctor told me that they have this happen about three or four times a month. Someone will be working with super glue and accidentally rub their eye, or some similar accident.
In the parking lot, I stopped walking to apply some, and only after I did the both eyes, did I realize that it was the cleaning solution.
I blindly made my way to the bathroom and washed out as best I could, then went to whatever drug store to buy more saline or wetting solution.
