Hello everyone. I recently looked directly at a very bright and intense welding light. I was rather close and I looked directly at it. I was not wearing any eye protection, and the welder had no protective screen or curtain up (he was simply welding outside on a public sidewalk without any safeties and I was passing by and happened to look in that direction - it was not an industrial area or anything, so the light was just thrust in front of me with no warning). I have had intense symptoms since then with my vision and eye pain. I have a bag of Ringer's Lactate, and I was wondering if that would be safe in this case to drip into my eyes for a couple of minutes? Any other suggestions on what I could possibly do? It has already been a day, but I'm thinking the first couple days post injury are crucial. Thank you for your answers.
