Wild Mouse Blood Exposure
I was using a weed wacker today at work, cutting some longer grass, when i hit a mouse. I realised that i had gotten a drop of it's blood in my eye and rushed to the nearest eyewash station where i rinsed my eye for about 2 minutes. should i consult a doctor or would it be a waste of time?

better to consult a doctor. never heard of such a thing happening. but its your eyesight man, why take risk. the world is beautiful, enjoy it, dont loose eyesight.
Eyes (conjunctiva) can one of the routes for absorption. Did you have any complaints following that.
If yes, then please consult ophthalmologic specialist.
