Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: There is a chemical burn to the eye..
Contact lenses should generally remain in place unless there is a chemical burn, where they may trap the chemical against the cornea. In such cases, removing the lens is critical to allow effective irrigation of the eye.
