If I get acid in my eye I should rinse my eye under the sink.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
Rinsing the eye under the sink is not the correct action to take if acid gets in the eye. Acid can cause severe damage to the eye, and rinsing it under the sink may not provide enough water flow or pressure to effectively flush out the acid. The proper course of action is to immediately flush the eye with a large amount of clean water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention as soon as possible.Rate this question:
