If it's just dry paint chips, it shouldn't be a problem, but if the liquid latex paint was swallowed, according to all of my cans, you should not induce vomiting and you should contact your poison control center or doctor immediately. The paint can should list its harmful contents and the doctor (or poison control) will need to know which ones they are.

∙ 12y agoFirst let's talk about latex paint. It's toxic, and you should always make sure you wear a mask and open a window to protect from the fumes so you dont get very sick while painting. But don't worry, your not using an oil based paint. which is verytoxic. Now to talk of eyes.
Step 1: DO NOT try to rub it out your hands might have more and just make it worst.
Step 2: DO contact your local emergency center or poison control center.
Step 3: DO flush your eyes for 15 seconds or until latex is out.
Stepp 4: when doctors arrive they might check your eyes to make sure you are clear!
