How can I get rid of blurred vision that results from chlorine exposure?

After swimming in a pool without goggles, I had blurry vision. This happened two days in a row - a haze over everything I see. It goes away the next morning, but returns after swimming again. Is there a way to get rid rid of it faster than sleeping on it?

Star at a computer screen without blinking until your eyes begin to water, hold your staring, until you cant any longer and then once the tears have been shed the blurry vision should dissappear almost altogether or totally.

If your eyes are burning or your vision is blurred, rinse your eyes with plain water for 10 to 15 minutes. If you wear contacts, remove them before rinsing your eyes, do not put the contacts back in your eyes, dispose of them even if you do not wear disposable contacts.

Get a dixie cup, fill it up with cold water out of a bottle, (out of the tab will work as long as its purified) hold your eye in the cup and blink, then repeat in the other. in the morning it should be back to normal or somewhat.

The blurry vision is probably a result of irritation in your eyes from the chlorine, which is a pretty strong chemical in the first place. In order to avoid it, just wear goggles. Once your eyes are irritated, though, you can flush them with water or eye drops, both of which simulate the action of tears washing out the chlorine.

The best solution is prevention, hence the sales of swim goggles. The best thing for eyes is saline solution. It is used by wearer's of contacts to clean and store the contacts, and to re-moisturize the eyeballs. Flush the eyes with saline solution several times, then a rest period of closed eyes for 10 to 15 minutes.

Start using goggles! If your eyes are irritated rinse them theroughly with fresh clean water. Natural tears are also very helpful so countinuous blinking will work up some water from your eyes. If you are this bothered by it visiting a doctor is recomended, though he may only tell you to use you goggles.

I crush up a 1000mg Vitamin C tablet into a fine powder, then mix the powder in a 2 liter bottle with tap water. I then rinse my eyes with just a little bit of this water while in the shower, then rinse it all out of my eyes.

Also: Mix some of this water in your shampoo and it gets the chlorine smell out of your hair. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) + chlorine = salts, which wash out in water.  add a comment

just take a good shower and your eyes will go back to normal or at lease close to that. But when you wake up in the morning it'll be back to normal. Peace-Irie

I've played waterpolo for years and for those of you who dont know, your not allowed to use goggles for safety reasons. After every game I cant even open my eyes so I put COLD MILK in my eyes. The calcium in the milk helps to soothe your eyes!! Itworks!
