Any time you get poison anything (oak, ivy or sumac) near the eye a visit to the doctor is imperitive! Many, many products would be harmful to use in the eye area. Your doctor will prescribe something safe and possibly even give your husband some cortisone. In the meantime, the safest thing he can do is use some cold compresses...they will temporarily stop the itching.
