3315. Dirt in the Eye.—Place your forefinger upon the cheekbone, having the patient before you; then draw up the finger and you will probably be able to remove the dirt; but if this will not enable you to get at it, repeat this operation while you have a netting-needle or bodkin placed over the eye-lid; this will turn it inside out, and enable you to remove the sand, or eyelash, &c., with the corner of a fine silk handkerchief.
3316. As soon as the substance is removed, bathe the eye with warm water and exclude the light for a day. If the inflammation is severe, take a purgative and use a refrigerant lotion. (969.)
3317. Lime in the Eye.—Syringe it well with warm vinegar and water (one ounce to eight ounces of water); take a purgative, and exclude light.
3318. Iron or Steel Spiculæ in the Eye.—This occurs while turning iron or steel in a lathe.
