If a foreign object enters your eye flush with plenty of drops?

No, you should never flush your eye with plenty of drops. It may wash the object further into your eye, causing damage to the cornea, retina, or other delicate eye structures.

Instead, you can do the following.

- Blink rapidly. Blinking can sometimes dislodge a foreign object from your eye.

- Rinse your eye with clean water. Use a gentle stream of water from a faucet or shower to rinse your eye for several minutes.

- If the object is still in your eye, see a doctor. Do not rub your eye, as this can worsen the injury. Cover your eye with a clean cloth or bandage to protect it until you can be seen by a doctor.
