Can olive oil harm baby's eyes

Please know that I am certaily not medically trained. I have done st johns trainig etc, but a dr is best if you are concerned.

My fav passtime is reading medical journals etc.

My LG spat out her panado and it landed in her eye the other day. Boy did she scream and boy did I get the fright of my life. Poor thing it must've burned like hell. I also panicked that I had blinded her but all seems to be fine. I washed her eye out with a facecloth. I don't think Olive Oil can cause any harm.

Thanx julz & hayley.Moomie is like doc-on-call.Dont know what I'd do without it.

I agree with Julz. It should not cause any kind of problems.

Chanti it is natural so I don't think it would be a problem. xxx
