Answer #1

Do you have those eye baths? Otherwise, just splash water. If it doesnt get better, you may have to get it checked out…

Answer #2

Some advice…

  1. get a pair of goggles if you are going to do anything underwater & need to keep ur eyes open.
  2. try washing your eyes with just some cool water…and avoid straining your eyes for a few hours…
  3. if after a while they are still irritated, try some visine or any other type of eye drops you may have in your home. If your situation worsens with in 3 hours & doesnt get any better after this advice, try a cvs/riteaid/walgreen pharmacist to assist you before making the call to your eye doctor & have to cough up 200-300 dollars for the same advice I just gave you! Hope you feel better…Good Luck.

Answer #4

Thanks!hey,what are eye baths?

Answer #5

I dont really know if you call this an eye bath, but my dad always said if you are having trouble with your eye, take care of it the old fashion way…fill a reg glass of water to almost the top…and blink your eye a few times as if you were under water look at the bottom of the glass and you will feel better!

now, there is this thing you can get in the pharmacy as well…it has like a little compartment that fits the size of your eye perfectly, just ask them for an eye wash kit & you will add the solution then I think you fit your eye on it & follow as directed.

Hope you feel better…and hope this advice was helpful.
