In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you suspect you have injured your cornea, it's best to make an appointment with your eye doctor. The doctor will use a penlight or ophthalmoscope to examine your eye for trauma. Your doctor may also examine your injured eye using special eye drops with Fluorescein dye that make your tears yellow. This dye helps make your abrasion more visible under the blue light. To do this, a topical anesthetic is added to the eye and then your lower lid will be pulled down gently. A Fluorescein strip is then touched onto the eye, and as you blink, the dye spreads throughout the eye. Yellow stained areas under normal light indicated damaged corneal areas. Your doctor will then use a special cobalt blue light to highlight areas of abrasion and to determine the cause. Several vertical abrasions can indicate a foreign body, while branching stains can indicate herpes keratitis. Additionally, several punctuated lesions can indicate your contact lens as a cause. Your vision will be affected by this dye and you will see a yellow haze for a few minutes. You may also experience a yellow discharge from your nose during this time. If your scratched cornea is causing you pain, it's a good idea to take over-the-counter pain medications, such as those containing acetaminophen (Tylenol). Dealing with your pain is important, as pain causes stress to the body, which prevents the body from healing quickly and effectively. Always take pain medications according to the instructions on the packaging and never exceed the recommended dosage. Eye patches were traditionally used to help heal a corneal scratch, however recent medical studies have found that eye patches can actually increase pain and prolong healing. An eye patch hinders the natural blinking of the eye, thus straining the eyelids and producing pain. It also increases the tearing of the eye and this invites more infection and delays the healing process. An eye patch also decreases oxygen delivery, and the cornea is dependent on oxygenation. Nowadays, instead of an eye patch, your doctor will often prescribe nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) eye drops, used in combination with a soft, disposable contact lens. The eye drops are designed to decrease the sensitivity of your cornea. The soft contact lens is used as a bandage to protect your eye, speed up the healing process and reduce pain while it heals. Unlike with eye patches, this therapy allows you to see out of both of your eyes, all the while reducing inflammation. The most common prescribed eye drops and ointments include topical NSAIDs and antibiotics. Topical NSAIDs: Try Diclofenac (Voltaren), 0.1% solution. Put one drop in your eye four times daily. You can also try Ketorolac (Acular), 0.5% solution. Use one drop four times daily.See Part 3 for how to administer eye drops.Always follow the instructions and dosage outlined on the packaging. Topical antibiotics: Try Bacitracin (AK-Tracin) and use 1/2-inch ribbon two to four times daily. Or use erythromycin ophthalmic ointment, applying a 1/2-inch ribbon. You can also use Chloramphenicol (Chloroptic), 1% ointment and give yourself two drops every three hours. Yet another option is Ciprofloxacin (Ciloxan), 0.3% solution, where the dosage changes over the course of the treatment. On the first day, administer two drops every 15 minutes for six hours, then two drops every 30 minutes for rest of day. On the second day, administer two drops per hour. From the third day to day 14, administer two drops every four hours. Always follow the instructions and dosage outlined on the packaging. Wearing eye makeup such as mascara, eye shadow or eyeliner can irritate the injured eye and prolong healing. Therefore, it's best to avoid wearing eye makeup until the scratch has completely healed. It's a good idea to wear sunglasses while you're dealing with a scratched cornea to protect your eyes from light sensitivity. Sometimes a scratched cornea will cause light sensitivity. You can protect your eyes from the light by wearing sunglasses with UV protection, even while indoors. If you are experiencing extreme sensitivity to light or spasms in your eyelid, your ophthalmologist may choose to give you eye drops designed to dilate your pupil. This helps to reduce pain and relax your eye muscles. See Part 3 on how to administer pupil dilating eye drops. Avoid wearing your contacts until your physician says it's safe. If you wear contacts regularly, it's recommended that you avoid wearing them for at least a week following the injury, until your cornea has healed completely. This is particularly important if the cornea scratch was caused by wearing contact lenses in the first place. You should also not wear contact lenses while applying antibiotic treatments to your injured cornea. Wait 24 hours after your last dosage of antibiotics before wearing them again.
Summary: Get a diagnosis. Take oral pain medication to alleviate pain. Avoid wearing an eye patch. Inquire about alternatives to eye patches. Don't wear any eye makeup. Wear sunglasses. Don't wear contact lenses.

After you've washed and dried your clothes, grab a metal or wire clothing hanger. Before you put your clothes on, gently glide the metal hanger over your clothes. The metal discharges the electricity and removes the static. When you go to hang your clothing, hang clothing that is sticking and clinging with a metal hanger. You can also pass a metal hanger in between your skin and your clothes after putting the clothes on. This works particularly well with delicate fabrics, like silk. However, metal wire hangers can distort some clothing items, like heavy sweaters. If you think that your clothing may be damaged by a wire hanger, simply run the hanger over the surface of the fabric before storing your item some other way. Take a metal safety pin and turn your clothing inside out. Unlock the pin and slide it through the seam of your clothing so that it's hidden from the outside. Turn your clothing out to face the right direction and put your clothing on. The safety pin will absorb any static electricity. It doesn't matter if you're removing your clothes from the dryer, closet, or dresser. The pin will still work to remove static cling. Avoid placing the pin on the front or near an exposed hem, since others will be able to see it if you do. Running a metal object across your clothing discharges the static electricity. After drying your clothes, put a metal thimble on your finger. Run the finger across the surface of every clothing item to reduce the static charge. You can use a metal-bristled brush instead of a thimble if you prefer, although this may not be the best choice if your fabric could snag on the bristles. As with other tricks involving metal, the idea is to discharge the electrical charge to prevent static. Touching any metal object will accomplish the same goal if you do not have a metal thimble. If you don't have a thimble, brush, hanger, or pin, any metal object will successfully remove an electrical charge. A fork, spoon, bowl, gear, screwdriver, or any other object will work so long as it's made of metal. Make sure that your metal object is clean before running it over your clothes.

One-sentence summary -- Slide the affected clothes through a metal hanger. Hide a safety pin inside of your clothes to absorb static. Run a metal thimble or brush over the fabric. Drag a metal object over the shirt to gather electrical charge.

Problem: Article: Wait for about 10 minutes to let the disinfectant sit and more effectively attach to and eliminate germs. After 10 minutes, wipe the disinfected surface with a microfiber cloth. If you've cleaned multiple surfaces in a kitchen or bathroom, use a separate cloth for each surface to avoid contamination.
Summary:
Let the spray sit for 10 minutes. Wipe with a microfiber cloth.
