A father just called in ¿ his son just had an accident with a chem handler hose and got straight Roundup in his eye. He rinsed with clean water from a hose for about 5 minutes, then had a 10 min shower and is currently on his way to the doctor. Said there was still some burning feeling. He wanted to know is there was anything else they should do. The father¿s name is (name) and his home number is #. Would you be able to give him a shout? I mentioned rinsing for at least 15 minutes and good that he was heading to the dr to be checked out. Just spoke to dad, reassured and explained may have corneal irritation or abrasion (he had contacts in- removed before washing out eye), and offered to talk to ER doctor as well.
