0.5% saline solution, or 0.9% diluted one part solution, to one part water. Just make sure it is only saline solution you are getting, and it does not have anything added to it.

i have a bottle here
this is the contents a sterile, isotonic, buffered solution containing the equivalent of 0.9% w/v sodium chloride with boric acid, borax, sodium perborate, phosphoric acid and water - purified
do you think this would be suitable?

no, too many other things, just plain old saline solution.

That list of ingredients looks pretty similar to what I've always used and recommended, Bausch and Lomb's Eye Wash. http://www.bausch.com/en_US/consumer/visioncare/product/drops/eyewash.aspx

Most readily available saline solution contains ingredients to reduce the impact on the eye (buffering agents) and to prevent contamination by outside germs. These are solutions you would be fine putting in your eye.
Kent67 is right. It's a basic eyewash and so very safe for even delicate things like eyes or chameleons.
