What Are The Remedies For Burning Sensation And Blurred Vision In Eyes After Getting Soap Into Eyes?

How should I treat laundry soap in my eyes. I have been flushing the eye about every 30 minutes buy it still burns and feels like sand is in my eye. Plus my vision in that eye is very blurry. Should I continue to flush with water or is there any type of an over the counter ointment to give my eye some relief?

Hello,
It seems from the history that you are having burning sensation and blurred vision after soap went into your eyes. It is normal to have burning sensation following entry of soap into eyes and blurring of vision is not seen.
Burning sensation should go away with washing your eyes. But for blurring of vision you require examination by a eye doctor to find out the underlying cause and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
