Today I washed my washroom with diluted acid.while using brush, that acid spreaded into my left eye.
Immediately I washed with water.
Very light irritation is there.eye vision is normal.
Do I need to apply any drops or need to visit doctor?

Must visit an ophthalmologist as thorough wash is required to remove the acid completely which can be done by an ophthalmologist.. Also the corneal epithelial abrasion is to be seen and steroids need to be started accordingly and tapered and stopped
