Schoolgirl writhes in agony after hand gel explodes in her face burning her eyeball
A MUM is warning of the hidden dangers of hand sanitiser after a bottle left in a hot car exploded and burned her daughter's EYEBALL.
When Olivia-Layla flipped the cap on the Enliven hand gel seconds into the journey the bottle "exploded" - showering her left eye in a hot jet of antibacterial gel. "I abandoned the car - left the keys, my phone, everything, in the car - and as we ran inside I shouted for my husband to come and help.
"When we came inside I put my head over the sink and Mum was washing it out. It felt like it was burning, like it was on fire."Put on protective gloves if they’re available. Hold the casualty’s eye under gently running water for at least 20 minutes and make sure the outside and inside of the eyelid is washed.Make sure the contaminated water does not splash the uninjured eye, you or the casualty.Call 999 or 112.
