Apparatus
If you ever get bleach in your eye, rinse it out with room temperature water for 5-10 minutes. Then, go to the doctor or urgent care or ER, where they will evaluate your eye and continue the irrigation with a bag of saline. They give you some antibiotic drops and possibly a tetanus shot and send you home.
How do they irrigate your eye? I'm glad you asked. One end of a tube is attached to the IV saline. Then they slip this "contact" lens onto the eyeball:

It was an exciting Saturday.
Particularly after we finally got home and then had to dig and then push the truck out of a snowbank because someone wasn't paying attention to that either.

THat doesn't even LOOK fun, so whoever got the apparatus was not a lucky person, and I sure hope it wasn't you. Not that I'd wish it on anyone, but I think you get my drift.
I hope everyone's better now, including the folks who had to push the truck out of the snowbank. ;)
