Deck General USCG Question #1373 (Set 43)

What is the proper first aid for LPG in the eye?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — Flush the eye with plenty of water.

LPG is a cryogenic liquid that causes severe frostbite upon contact with tissue. Immediate first aid requires flushing the affected eye with copious amounts of clean, tepid water to remove the chemical and restore normal temperature, followed by immediate medical evaluation to prevent permanent ocular damage.
