Mixed up my e-liquid with his eye drops

    As above, father had job done on cataracts in Galway yesterday. Prescribed eye drops for a few days to aid his recovery. I left my e-liquid on the windowsill and the mother mixed up with the prescription, similar sized bottle. One drop went in and the roar out of him was surreal. It's happened others as I found out after doing an internet search....just wanted to highlight it here as the stuff really will sting the bejaysus out of you! A good rinse with water sorts it out eventually.

    Old man says he's going to burn it if he sees the e-juice lying around. So much for improving my health...didn't think I'd cause others discomfort in the process!

    I've gotten the stuff into my eyes before and it's probably the worst pain I've ever experienced.

    He should really see a doctor.

    Another reason not to regulate ejuice as medicine. The bottles will become even more similar.
    Juice is burny all right, in the eyes it must be like chilly oil. Get a bigger bottle of juice, one with a colorful label and show your dad the raised triangle, though that might not be the most tactful thing as the raised triangle if to help blind people avoid stuff :)

    I was filing a 10ml bottle with a blunt needle syringe once and the needle came off under pressure (VG Liquid) and I got a good splash of liquid in my left eye.
    It was a bit red for a day or so, but nothing to write home about.
