By mistake used tanx gum paint in my eye
Mistaking it for an eye drop I put tan x gum paint in my eye. After that my eye started burning and hurting I washed it with water again and again and then used some ice to do some padding. Then I used moxifloxacin as drops.
What should I do if the redness persists?
