Okay kiddo, have you ever accidentally gotten something in your eyes like soap or dirt and it made them hurt really bad? Well, an eyewash station can help make your eyes feel better!
An eyewash station is like a special sink just for your eyes. It has two spouts that shoot out water. You stand in front of the eyewash station and lean your head forward over the sink. Then, you turn on the water and let it rinse your eyes out for about 15 minutes.
The water is really special too! It's very clean and has been treated to make sure it won't hurt your eyes. It's kinda like how you wouldn't want to drink dirty water, right? You want clean water for your eyes too.
Doctors and scientists came up with eyewash stations to make sure that if something gets in your eyes and makes them hurt, you can quickly rinse it out and feel better. Remember to always tell a grown-up if something gets in your eyes so they can help you use the eyewash station!
