Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Washing the eye socket with warm water or saline is the best choice as it is gentle and will not irritate the skin or cause any harm to the eye socket. Soap and cleaning solutions can be too harsh and may cause irritation or dryness. Rinsing with clear water alone may not be sufficient to remove any debris or bacteria that may have accumulated in the socket, but using warm water or saline can help to flush out any accumulated debris, resulting in a cleaner, healthier socket.
