Don't get e-liquid in your eye.

[quasimod]

It stings. A lot. So wash it off of your fingers before you forget about it.

Sometimes when I blow my atty's the liquid will splash also, although I wear glasses have had close calls there too

 

[GoodDog]

Yep, it sure does sting! The first day I got Atomic Fireball I splashed some in my eye while getting the inside cap off the bottle. Didn't do that again!! LOL

Quasimod, welcome back from your trip. I learned that lesson the hard way, it does sting - a lot.

Great post. Brought a smile to my face. Do not store e-liquid next to allergy eye drops. Do not clean contact lenses in e-liquid. When swimming or bathing in e-liquid do not open your eyes with your head immersed.

i had this happen when my syringe needle got plug. I pushed to hard and the end came off and spewed e liquid in my eyes. burnt like the devil. fortunately i was at the sink so I was able to rinsed my eyes quickly. just wanted to provide this caution , if the the syringe is hard to push it can pop the needle off and cause the liquid to spray out violently and cause it to get in your eyes.

at least it wasn't the needle...juice in the eye sucks, removing the air from a syringe before filling and it sprayed a nice mist at me...sucked. Not as bad as Habanero oil or pepper spray, but a handy backup!

I've had this happen when removing the dripper top on one of my MENTHOL liquids... Nic + Menthol does NOT feel good.. I rinsed my eye for 15 minutes and it still burned and my entire eye was sooo red and it looked so gross

I was putting the dripper top back on a bottle and a drop of juice went into my eye. I couldn't believe the pain. It reminded me of the times that I had to go thru the tear gas chamber in boot camp and again about six months later. Wow!!!!

it hurts and stings i just got eliquid in my eyes and now my eyes look like vampire eyes red going off to rinse them again as they are still stinging this time using warm water

 

[quasimod]

Heh, I used to think that wearing eye protection while mixing was a bit of overkill. How the heck could you splash that stuff into your eye, right? Well, here's how: You draw some eliquid into a syringe, and while removing the needle from the bottle, the tip just barely brushes the bottle lip. It acts like a tiny little catapult, and flings a giant, evil, undulating globule of FLAMING RED DEATH at your face.

OK, maybe it's not exactly giant, or flaming red death, but it would sure feel like it if it landed in your eye. In my case, it was a tiny little droplet that landed an inch or so away from my eye. Lucky can be as good as smart, but smart delivers more consistent results... I'll be wearing some eye protection from now on.

I got some in my eye, it was like smoking a pack of cigarettes in 5 seconds. I feel sick right now.

 

[TCasualties]

Just got E-juice in my eye.

just had a nice cooked 8.5 watt load of monkey cream fly out of my bella tank and straight in the eyeball... why it had to be monkey cream and not something a little less perverted sounding only god knows..... washed it out and grabbed another tank.... painful and quite embarrassing, but it's still better than smoking...
