What is the proper first aid for LPG in the eye?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Flush the eye with plenty of water.
The proper first aid for LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) in the eye is to flush the eye with plenty of water. This is because LPG can cause serious eye irritation and damage if not properly flushed out. Flushing the eye with water helps dilute and remove the LPG, reducing the risk of further injury.
The other options are not appropriate. Applying an ice pack (A) could further irritate the eye, keeping the eyelid closed (C) would not remove the LPG, and rubbing the eye area clean (D) could potentially push the LPG deeper into the eye. Flushing with water is the recommended first aid action to take in this situation.
