    Ideally, you should wash the eye with saline solution, but tap water will be fine if saline is unavailable. Use plenty of water.

It's also important to go to A&E if you cut your eye and it starts bleeding or if you have something stuck in your eye. Never try to remove anything from your eye as you could damage it.…
