Harry Judd’s wife has recounted her son Lockie's ‘awful scream’ when he chemically burned his eye with washing pod and wept ‘I can’t see, mummy.'
Joining Lorraine Kelly on her daytime ITV show on Thursday, Izzy, 40, who shares Lockie, three, daughter Lola, seven, and son Kit, five, with the McFly star, 38, called their horror hospital dash an ‘out of body experience.'
The couple rushed the toddler to A&E last month after he got hold of a washing pod and split the contents in his eye.
While appearing on Lorraine, Izzy explained: 'I'd left the lid off the pod while I ran up stairs and we just heard this awful scream. Lockie had squeezed it and the liquid went into his eyes.
'We got him in the shower but his eyes were foaming and sticking. So we rushed him to A&E.'

She continued: 'The nurses were washing his eyes and he was saying to me "I can't see mummy" it was like an out of body experience.
'Basically he had a chemical burn to the eye and had we not responded as quickly as we did it could have been so much worse.'
The NHS advises that if you get a strong chemical, such as oven cleaner or bleach, in your eye you should go to A&E or call 999 and keep rinsing your eye with water while waiting for medical help.
Sharing the news to Instagram at the time, Izzy detailed the 'traumatic' few days the family had suffered and issue a warning to other parents.
Alongside a black and white snap holding her youngest child's hand, she explained: 'It's been a traumatic few days… the reason I'm sharing this is because I don't want another family to experience this and although we all get told the risks of cleaning products at home, reminders are always important.
'So Lockie managed to get hold of a washing pod which he then burst open and managed to get into his eyes very badly. In that split second I wasn't there, I also forgot to put the washing pods away.
'We rushed to the hospital… Lockie's Ph levels in his eyes were 8 and they needed to be 7.
'It took all night flushing out Lockie's eyes with 22 litres of fluid before finally getting the ph down.

Izzy continued: 'We couldn't be more grateful to the A&E nurses who showed unbelievable dedication and kindness, not only to Lockie but also to me.
'As you can imagine it was pretty horrendous having to watch and put Lockie through that, he doesn't like getting his hair washed let alone having to lie there for 10 minutes for each litre of fluid.
'We are now being closely monitored as his right eye is injured from the chemicals, we are in the best hands though and I'm so grateful to the specialists. Little Lockie is such a determined and brave little boy.
'So please, please put cleaning products high up and completely out of reach- this has been my scariest moment as a mum, I'm so sorry for others who have experienced these kind of awful accidents too.'
