1-26510370-The reporter indicated an exposure to an herbicide containing the active ingredient glyphosate. The adult male reporter stated within four hours of his initial contact with the registrant he had gotten some concentrated product in his eye. He did not clarify the circumstances in which the exposure took place or in what capacity he was working with the product. He reported he had flushed his eye for a few seconds and has used the OTC medication Visine to alleviate the burning, tearing and tingling to his eye he described had persisted. The reporter asked for additional recommendations. The reporter was advised of the potential ocular irritant effect of the product following exposure by that avenue. He was advised of proper decontamination, and symptomatic care. He was advised of the threshold at which he should seek medical care should his symptoms persist or worsen. No further information is available.
