If you don't get it out on your finger or byrinsing it out under water, or with saline solution (the bestchoice), the eye will produce a substance that willencapsulate the bug. But it's highly unlikely that you'llhave it in your eye long enough for that tohappen.
Beside this, what do you do if a bug flies in your eye?
- Wash your hands with soap and warm water for at least 30seconds.
- Fill a small drinking glass with water.
- Rest the rim of the glass on the bone located at the base ofyour eye socket.
- Pour the water into your eye to flush out the insect. You canalso flush out the insect with an eye dropper filled with water orsaline.
Beside above, is it dangerous if a fly goes in your eye?
Inmost cases, probably nothing if it works itself out ofyour eye or you rinse it out. But in the infrequent butunfortunate event that it lays eggs in the tissue aroundthe eye, this could potentially develop into a seriousinfection, called Myiasis.
These non-biting pests are attracted to fluidssecreted by the eyes, nose and ears on both humans andanimals. Because of their propensity for hovering aroundthe eyes, this genus has been referred to commonly aseye gnats, but are also known as grass flies,eye flies, and frit flies.
