What Happens If You Get Gasoline in Your Eyes Or on An Open Wound?
Gasoline splashing into your eyes can be painful, but acting quickly can help reduce irritation. Flush your eyes with clean water for 15 to 20 minutes, then call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222 for expert guidance.
If gasoline gets on a cut or scrape, it may sting, but it does not enter the bloodstream through the wound and typically does not pose a significant health risk. Watch the video to learn more about gasoline exposure and the proper first-aid steps to take.
