When my eyes were itching, I washed it with drinking water. But there was blood I think on the glass. So, if we washed the eyes in that water can it cause hiv or hep? I am worried. Please tell. For washing my eyes again there was no water left. So I didn't wash my eyes after that. Why to do? Will it cause hiv or hep? It happened at home.
