What Causes Pain And Irritation In Eyes After Spraying Deodorant?

default
Posted on Tue, 17 Feb 2015
Question: Dear doctor,

My 5 year old kid by accident put deodorant spray in her eyes.
Immediately we washed and kept washing regularly to around 4-5 times.
The kid kept complaining of pain and irritation.
Then we applied castor oil once and made her close the eyes and rest for around 10 minutes.
Then we washed the eyes with water.
After around 30 minutes of doing this she stopped complaining of both pain/irritation.
She is watching the TV now.

Her eyes are little RED.
Please let us know how we need to proceed.

Regards,
XXXX

Hello

Welcome to Health care Magic.

I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I will be answering your question.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that your 5 year old kid has accidently put deodrant spray into eye.
Since you have washed the eye immediately no problem will occur.

The next treatment to be done is use of artificial tears eye drops.
I would like to use artificial tears eye drops like Refresh tears eye drops for 3-5 days.
With the use of artificial tears he will be fine no need to worry.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
