Wiped toner all over my eyes

I thought I'd put micellar water on cotton wool to remove my eye make up. Except I somehow used toner instead..

Initially I felt nothing so thought it was probably fine but then it got a little tingly.

Google suggested flushing the eye but I never really understood how eyes are supposed to be rinsed! Do you run water on the actual eyeball?? I've tried to do that for a few minutes, will I (or most importantly my eyes?) survive? Should I be doing something else?

LOL no it means get an 'eye bath' like eye drops (optrex or the like) and pour a couple of drops into each eye not actual water :)

Worse for your eyes to pour tap water in them tbh

If you're going to bathe them with tap water, boil it first and wait until its cooled. For future reference, if you ever get something nasty in your eye it should be rinsed for 20 minutes (ideally with sterile saline).

Once upon a time we used to use toner to take off our eye make up all the time
sigh

I'd wash my face in tepid water a couple of times, then use an eye bath.
