“How to help boyfriend who had battery acid in eye?”

It is important to flush your eyes immediately for at least 20 minutes with water or sterile saline solution. If you have symptoms of pain or loss of vision it is important to contact your ophthalmologist right away.

Go to the ER or to an ophthalmologist IMMEDIATELY!

Go to the emergency room and keep flushing the eye out.

Go to an emergency room!

He needs IMMEDIATE medical attention. Go straight to an ophthalmologist.

Best Regards,
David J. Pinhas, M.D.

Take him to the eye doctor. He needs lubricating ointment and antibiotics to prevent infection and scarring.
