Types Of Eye Injury Assessment We Treat

  • Foreign object in the eye

    Dust, grit, or metal fragments requiring careful removal and irrigation.

  • Chemical splash exposure

    Chemical irritant in the eye requiring thorough clinical irrigation.

  • Blunt eye trauma

    Impact from a ball, elbow, or object — assessment for orbital or globe injury.

  • Corneal abrasion

    Scratch on the surface of the eye causing pain, tearing, and light sensitivity.

When to Go to the Emergency Room Instead

Go to the nearest emergency room or call 911 if you or someone with you has:

  • Object impaled in the eye (do not touch — go to ER)
  • Sudden significant vision loss or vision changes
  • Chemical burn to the eye (flush immediately with water for 15 minutes, then go to ER)
  • High-speed impact eye injury (metal grinding, nail gun)

If you are unsure, go to the ER. It is always better to be safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
