| OMG my daughter just did this HELP! She sprayed Minnie with bleach. it was put up and some how she managed to get it. Minnie has been washed. I can't find anything online other than someone saying that it could make a person or even a dog go blind. |

| Did she get her in the eyes? Call your vet. Chemicals are absorbed through the skin, and bleach can burn, so I think a call to your vet would be good. Also, you might want to post this in the sick/emergency thread for quick results. Keep us posted.

| It can make her go blind and I have to watch out for corneal ulcers/abrasions. Any info on what it looks like. They said if she has any issue with the eyes she has to be seen |

| Don't wait for an issue. Go to the vet NOW so they can at least check her and you can go from there. A corneal abrasion is a wound on the eye that a vet can find by a simple eye exam with dye, you're not gonna see it on your own and if you wait, it could be too late. Go now while it's normal office hours before you end up with an issue tonight and it's gonna cost you 3x as much. Only a vet will be able to tell if there's an issue with her eyes and waiting will make it much much worse.

| I hope she got to the vet...bleach can be very harmful to her skin (bleach burns skin if leftk on and not washed off), as well as her eyes. Plus if she licks any...I would be scared to death. |

| Was it straight bleach or a bleach and water solution (how strong?)? And I agree, rinse her eyes with water, use an eye dropper but flood them well, then go to the vet.
