According to a recently released report, during a 6-month period, doctors went for treatment of 6 cases of serious eye injuries in young children, which were caused by squeezing capsules including liquid washing detergent.

It was revealed by study author Dr. Noel Horgan of the Children’s University Hospital in Dublin, Ireland, that it appeared that children tend to instinctively grasp and squeeze these gel-liquid tablets that can burst easily in the hands and sometimes may even splash the caustic contents in their eyes.

From News-Medical.Net:

Alkali eye injuries occur when an alkaline substance, such as detergent or lime in plaster or cement, comes in contact with the eye, damaging the stem cells at the edge of the cornea.

This it seems is very significant because these stem cells provide new cells to line the surface of the cornea and are essential for clarity and normal vision.

In severe cases, stem cells can be permanently damaged, permanently affecting vision.

Fortunately, all of the children included in the report, received prompt treatment such as eye irrigation, anesthetic drops, antibiotics, and steroids to reduce inflammation, so they eventually left hospital with healed eyes and normal vision, says Horgan.

Horgan and his team report that the children ranged in age from 18 months to 3 years old, and all experienced eye injuries after playing with gel-capsules of washing detergent, designed to go directly into the washing machine.

It was recommended by Horgan that warning labels by manufacturers should be made prominent and design packages must be made childproof.
