Hello
It seems from the history that glue went into the eyes while applying glue for a cut wound.
The treatment for this to saline wash the eyelids and to mechanically remove the glue.
Hence this requires examination and mechanical removal if glue is present sticking to the eyelashes or eyelid margin.
Thank you
