Hi.. No ..it is not dangerous. As long as it has not gone inside your eye and you are not having any eye symptoms..it is absolutely fine. Handwash also is a type of soap only .

Thoroughly clean the eyes by splashing drinking water 10 -12 times. Give cold compress to the eyes (Can dip clean cotton in refrigerator cold drinking water and keep over closed eyes for 30 seconds). Start with any lubricant Eyedrops like Eyedrops Refresh Liquigel or Flogel 1  drop 4 times a day. If there is any severe redness, irritation, discharge from the eye or any vision issues then opt for online consultation.
