Do You Need Emergency Eye Care?

It can be tempting to simply brush off a lingering eyelash in your eye or to ignore the blatant signs of an eye injury. However, if an eye injury goes untreated, it may have serious consequences, such as:

  • Growth over the foreign body
  • Infections
  • Low vision
  • Blindness
  • Visual disturbances
  • Pain and discomfort

When to See an Eye Doctor

Some people may not even know they are suffering from an eye injury and just assume their eyes are dry or watering. If you notice increased redness, inflammation, pain, or watering eyes that will not stop, it might be an indication that you need an eye doctor immediately to receive emergency eye care.

Risk Factors for Injuries

Certain activities can put you at a greater risk of getting an eye injury. These include:

  • Using harsh chemicals and rubbing your eyes
  • Not practicing proper handwashing and hygiene
  • Not using goggles and other safety equipment for the eyes
  • Playing with laser pointers or fireworks
  • Getting into physical fights resulting in orbital bone fractures and black eyes
  • Age-related changes or trauma to the eye
