just rinse well and you should be fine. I've gotten almost all automotive fluids in my mouth and eyes at one time or another.

Rinse well and if irritation persists, call your doctor.

sweet cause i like being able to see

Nothing will happen ,but your eye ball will come off though haha

Well it won't freeze anyway

A dog might lick it.

You will be fine. If you got eye drops use them or wash it out with water and you should good. Now I hope you learned to wear eye protection for next time

Flush it and you'll be fine. I once blasted myself right in the eye with brake cleaner, and still seem to be able to see fine, so I doubt coolant is that bad.

If you take a look at a MSDS (material safety data sheet) for coolant like this one from Texaco http://www.havoline.com/images/products/pdfs/anti_exlife.pdf it will tell you that coolant is an irritant for eyes and should be flushed with water for 15 min to remove all foreign particles. If you are still experiencing a problem for a while later then go see a doctor.

I wanted to tell him he would go blind in the next 10 minutes and to call Poison Control immediately.... but I just couldn't do it.

all i know is if you get it in your mouth, just drink a lot of beer. it will help counter act the chemicals.(i work at a hospital)thats what we prescribe to people when they come in claiming they have swallowed fairly large amounts of coolant or oil. and trust me, it works. just dont work on your car after drinking the beer. you wouldnt wunna mess up something worse.

Hahaha best post EVER. I love how people relie on the site for so much, haha instead of reading the warning label or IF CONTACT WITH EYE description on the bottle you get on the computer. Now thats dedication to forum.

If it's hot it might!

what doesn't everybody use antifreeze to clean there eyes, i personally prefer zerex

If you have contacts in, take them out and flush your eye out. Then, get yourself a nice set of safety glasses. You'll need them. I can't work under my car without them or I get all types of dirt and fluids in my eyes.

I thought it was.

Can't be as bad as the time I got super glue in my eye. Now that was a fun one.

It's getting there.

I've found that holding my eye open under a running faucet for 15 minutes is not only inconvenient, but much more irritating than any liquid I've ever gotten in my eye.

Coolant isn't that big of a deal. I've gotten gasoline in my eye and that burned like hell. Spent a good 20 minutes at the kitchen sink using the sprayer directly in my eye. Shit still burned afterwards and was red. Coolant....not a big deal. Its water and glycol

Coolant not a big deal? I'll be sure to not make a big deal out of it if it happens to me, seeing as its not a cause of concern...

Dont ask why, but when I was 9-10 yrs old I was shaking a 1galon gas can and i opened the purge vent and it instantly gushed in my face.... I thaught I was going to die!! And to make it worse, my dad said "well son, its time to put you in moms gas tank because thats what happens to little boy who play with gas"... I was like NOOOOOOOOO......
TRUE STORY RIGHT THERE

the first good sign was that he could see well enough to post a thread on it... i second the eye pro though, i got tired of getting fluid and metal shavings in my eyes, eye pro will help you out a lot, though not fool proof...
