Petrol in eye, what do you do?

[Dragonfly]

Right the BF got petrol in his eye, while checking the tank for petrol and it splashed in eye:roll:

Anyway loads of roars thought he was dying and head under tap, should he go to hospital or what? he wont go anyway but petrol cant be good in your eye!

His eyes is burning and swollen, is there lasting damage from petrol?

anyone know?

I got it in my eye when I was sixteen, and after rolling around on the forecourt in agony I was fine (apart from then losing my job).

I'd advise him to get it checked out. A little petrol shouldn't cause too much long term damage, but I'd err on the side of caution and pop to A&E, especially if its still playing him up. They might be able to wash his eye out properly, rather than just using water, which may help him a little more.

The dog shortly after burned its nose on the exhaust, thats a warning for them to stay away from my bike lol

Eye seems ok now just looks red.

Well it would get the petrol out anyway and maybe the eye to

Thought his eye would melt or something. He is an idiot when it comes to eye protection comes home with welders flash and everything. I am looking him up a welders helmet on ebay and glueing it to his head.

You dont mess about with eyes being blind is terrible, i couldnt cope with loosing sight.

You rinse it out with water. But generally it won't cause permeanant damage, but if you don't rinse it straight away it will burn the cornea and they'll be useless for a couple of weeks.

I had a cat once. Dropped a safe on it, it was a write off, so I stepped on it's head.

I remember my first attempt at syphoning when building banger racing motors with me uncle, I got it in my nose my eyes ears swallowed some, threw some up!


It was sore but alright, every time I breathed out I could tatse petrol, I was shit feared of lighting a ciggie for hours after that.

I've got it in my eye(s) more than I care to remember, no lasting effects and if sorted right away, will be fine.
