Which statement about first aid response for pesticide exposure to the eye is false?

You should drip water directly into the eye

The main idea is to rapidly dilute and remove pesticide from the eye by a careful, continuous rinse with clean water. You want a steady flow of water over the eye for several minutes, with the eyelids held open so the water can reach all surfaces. Directly dripping water into the eye isn’t the best approach because it can miss areas and doesn’t provide thorough, controlled irrigation. If a contact lens is present, remove it if it’s safe to do so, since a lens can trap chemical against the eye and hinder flushing. If irritation or pain continues after rinsing, seek medical care promptly.
