Hi, I had Lasik surgery on Monday of this week and yesterday night, I accidentally used hydrogen peroxide 3% in my eye. I used a qtip with few drops of the solution to wipe out the exterior of my eye but it somehow just got into my eye. I immediately washed my eyes with artificial tears. Today, my eye doesn t hurt but it s still a little bit red. I am afraid my cornea would have been damaged especially I had lasik not to long ago.. I am currently visiting Korea and today is a holiday so I can t see a doctor right now. what do you suggest doing?
hydrogen peroxide is corrosive should not be put on eye.washing repeated Ly with sterile water is only way out. You can put arti ficial tear but it is not known about its efficacy. Better to get examined by eye doctor to asses damage of cornea.
