Detailed Answer:
My dear,
Thanks for sending your query to us.
What you have done is good.Flushing with water and putting in lubricating eye drop is what is to be done.There is always some corneal injury for which optrex eye drop is to continue 5 times a day for 3 dzys or till there is slightest irritation present. I there is irritation persisting then we would like to add antibiotic eye drops otherwise optrex is ok and continue with it.
Any further query in this regard please do get back to me.
