First-Aid: Eye Care with Dust
Unfortunately, eye problems are a big deal on the trail. I remember trying to climb trees and getting bark dust in my eye on a hiking trip. Luckily, I had my brother there to carefully remove the pieces of bark, but had I not, I would have been in trouble. Now, there are a few things I carry with me whenever I hike to take care of these problems:
- A mirror: Just a mini one, but I have used it many times.
- An eye cleaner solution, like what you use for contacts.
- Tissue: To help remove dust when needed.
Although not by any means a comprehensive list, these will definitely help you a lot when you do need to take care of your eyes on the trails.
