Risk of hiv infection for splash of drops of vaginal fluid in my eye.

Hello:

Doing protected sex with a sexual worker. Checking the condom, a few drops (little drops) of the fluids in the surface splash
inside my eye. I'm wearing contact lenses and my eyes was irritated.
Note that the fluid was around 15 minutes in the surface of the condom, covered by paper (not exposed directly to air).

Please, I want to know, is it a risk of hiv infection a splash of little drops of vaginal fluid (assuming is infected) inside my eye?

Thanks a lot for your time and your answers.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
Mother to child

Dear Teak, only for my information, even the fluids are still wet, do you think the virus after 15 minutes out of the body was dead?

No need to do tests, then?.

Thanks everybody for answers.

It isn't a low risk it wasn't a risk at all.

This sounds like a very very very low risk situation. I probably wouldn't even test.

Thank you, RainLover71.

Only a question, how long the virus survive in a wet surface like the condom?.

Sorry, what means "full stop". (I don't speak English very well).

Thanks a lot.

Zero risk.Transmission takes place inside the body--full stop.
