Quicklime Entered in Eye
Doctor, I'm 14 Years Old. I Was Bitten By A Bee.  Because of this, my mother rubbed quicklime on my affected area for some time.  And my dad also had his hands on that affected area of ​​mine for quite some time. However, after they both rubbed the lime on the affected area and turned their hands, I moved my left hand to the place where the lime was applied and I Was rubbed my left eye with that left hand.  After a maximum of 1 minute, I remembered that I rubbed my eyes with the same hand with which I rubbed my eyes.  However, I did not have any burning / redness / pain / blurred vision in my eyes at that time.  I still washed my left hand and eyelids.  However, twelve hours have already passed since the incident.  I don't have any burning / redness / pain or blurred vision in my eyes yet.  Doctor, was the quicklime entered my eye? And How Long I Have To Wait To Consider Myself As Safe From The Quicklime? Please Inform And Help, Doc.

Hello If there is no redness etc then lime did not enter your eye. Having said that, consult local ophthalmologist for detailed evaluation
