TIFU by putting ear wax remover in my eye
This happened about 2 hours ago.
I suffer from a bit of allergies and today my eyes were a bit runny. So I decide to use my eye drops, no biggie. Except today, my eye drops hurt. Quite a bit in fact. So I look at the little bottle and turns out these are NOT my eye drops. This is the stuff I had to use on my ears 3 years ago because I had an earwax plug. So I immediately splash water in my eye to get it out. Still hurts like hell.
So I call my doctor. Welp they're on vacation, but their answering machine tells me to call a different doctor. So I do that. They don't answer and I get a busy signal each of the five times I call them So I call the hospital. The only one I can get in contact with there is a nurse. She tells me: "you need to call a doctor".... I then remember the poison hotline. So I call them and they say: "rinse out your eye and.... call a doctor". So I try the doctor again. But this time I get through to the "on hold" line. So I wait there for about 15 minutes. I finally get a hold of the secretary and she tells me: "you need to see the doctor". So I get an acute appointment and I'm now sitting in the bus.
TL;DR: I didn't check my meds before I applied them and accidentally put ear wax remover directly into my open eye.
Edit: the doctor says I'll be fine as the ear wax remover contains neither strings bases or acids.
