How Can Hot Oil That Accidentally Splashed In The Eye Be Treated?

2 days ago i accidentally spilled clove oil in my eye (mistook it for my eye drops in the dark). It burned like you know what! I flooded my eye with olive oil because I know water makes it worse. My eye is very red. At this point, is there any point seeking medical attention?

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
first of all i would recommend that u label your drops correctly to avoid any other such accidents
second of all is your vision like before u spilled the clove oil in your eyes.if yes then there is no need ro be concerned
the redness will take some time to go away due to the burning caused by the oil but it would go away without any harm eventually. i would recommend some natural tears refrigerated and spilled in the eyes.
hope i answered the question
