So is he going go blind? Please answer quick its late at night and my parents dont know that i'm on the computer. i'm jjust so scared

Answers:
I promise you your brother will not go blind. Alcohol in the eyes stings and burns, but will not cause blindness. He'll be fine, trust me.

If you spilled Drano or Liquid Plumber in his eye, it'd be different, but alcohol - don't worry.

You sound like a very good sister.
No, he's not going to go blind.
no
No he shouldn't go blind.
No joking he will not go blind I know he will be fine I had some in my eyes when I was three and Im not blind. Dont worry. relax and dont do it again. ok.
Take a deep breath and take heart. If you rinsed it immediately, he should be fine. You obviously have a kind heart, and I hope that you are reassured and can rest easy tonight. If you are still worried, talk to your parents or call a 24-hour pharmacy for advice.
no don't worry
No he won't go blind. The alcohol can irritate the eye, but since you washed it all out he should be just fine. You might notice his eye looks redder than usual, but that will fade away in a little bit. He cried because it burned, and in crying he probably diluted it and flushed it out of his eye fairly quickly. Then you washed it with more water, so you did just fine. I suggest you tell your parents now, so they can keep a watch on him. Of course, you will get the lecture and have two irritable parents- but in the long run things will be just fine. Your brother isn't going to go blind. Be very careful with rubbing alcohol in the future, though. Now, go tell your parents what happened, take your lumps and breathe easy.
First callmm down you dont have to worry, your brother's not gonna go blind. it was only rubbing alchohol and its natural that it stings especially in wounds or in this case the eye. As long as he washed it out and no longer burning he's fine and will NOT go blind. so sleep tight tonight and remember accidents happen. dont be so hard on yourself
