Guest guest Posted October 1, 2000 Report Share Posted October 1, 2000 Hi Sherri <I haven't posted in forever - but have been reading and saving lots of info So here I am, to ask a question that was asked of me. Of course, they were told to seek medical opinion - but for futu <snip>...indirectly rubbed lavender oil in his eyes I think...they started to pus a day after it happened....is this sign of infection...they don't seem irritated or anything, just pussy..should I take him to the doc or is it just washing the oil out of his eyes? It seems to be better today, not as bad.<snip> I don't think you should ever use essential oils in or near the eyes. Lavender, or any other essential oil, certainly isn't gentle on the eyes. Wash out the eyes with milk if you accidentally get some in them. The essential oil will mix with the milk and get flushed out (better than water). Yes, I would have sought medical advice too. Can't answer your question of whether it was an allergy, though. Helen in Cape Town Wishing you many good things sherri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
