IN CASE OF AN EXPOSURE OF CHEMICALS TO THE EYES:

    1. Remove contact lenses immediately. By-standers may need to assist a victim.
    2. Flush in a stream of water for at least 15 minutes. Make sure the eyelids are held open and away from the eye itself.
    3. Regardless of the chemical involved, seek immediate medical attention. Residual amounts of chemicals may cause damage at a later date.  Only a physician can assess the situation.
     
    • IF AN INJURY APPEARS SERIOUS, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION AT ONCE. 
    • IF AN INJURY APPEARS LIFE-THREATENING, CALL AN AMBULANCE IMMEDIATELY. 
    • AN ACCIDENT REPORT FORM MUST BE COMPLETED AND SENT TO THE CHEMICAL HYGIENE OFFICER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
