Why is it necessary to rinse eyes for 15 minutes after getting a chemical in? Wouldn’t 1 minute be enough?

This is possibly tangential, but as somebody that has been OC sprayed (military grade pepper spray), sometimes 15 minutes isn’t enough. Your eyes are sensitive and delicate. If something is dangerously irritating them, washing them as thoroughly as you possibly can is the best course of action. Even if the chemical irritant has been diluted/ washed away to a no longer dangerous concentration, there’s a good chance your eyes still hurt. More water’s probably the only thing you can do about that.
