[Valerie and George]

An odd question, but here goes: George sometimes gets what looks like a bit of lint or something in his eye and then of course it waters and looks miserable and I'm not sure what to do for him. If it were MY eye, I'd use eye drops or something to wash it out. What can I do for him?

I can't think what it might be- but normal saline- like what contact wearers use -is safe for the eye- I'd sure watch for redness, tearing, or swelling though! Sometimes even lint or dust can cause an abrasion-
