Hi,

Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.

I advise you to flush the eye with cool and clean water.

After flushing the eye with clean water, gently wipe the eye lids with a soft clean cloth.

You can repeat this procedure once or twice.

Usually the cloudiness clears by flushing of the water and cleaning with a cloth.

Watch for any abnormality like redness, watering eyes, or any irritation.

It the clouding is still present in your eye or if you find any abnormality, consult an Eye specialist as early as possible.

Hope I have answered your query, if you have any clarification please let me know.

Regards.
