As a PSA: getting superglue (or dermabond the similar glue we use to repair wounds) out of anything is a study in patience and Vaseline (petroleum jelly) which will dissolve it gradually. I always suggest using an antibiotic eye ointment (which is petroleum jelly base) for the eye so that you also provide a bit of antibiotic to help prevent infection of the conjunctiva or cornea.
Also, what kind of special idiot confuses superglue with eye drops?
