We take care of emergency eye care services. Eye care emergencies can happen unexpectedly and require immediate attention to minimize damage and discomfort. Emergency eye care is needed when you experience an eye injury that impacts your eye and/or causes a sudden change in vision. While sometimes a trip to the eye doctor is necessary, other times, a healthcare professional should be your first stop. Knowing how to provide first aid for various eye emergencies can make a significant difference in the outcome.

Here are steps to give first aid and care for common eye emergencies:
  • Stay Calm: In any eye emergency, it’s essential to stay calm. Keeping the person in distress as calm as possible can help manage the situation effectively. Panic can exacerbate the problem.
  • Do Not Rub the Eye: Regardless of the nature of the eye emergency, avoid rubbing the affected eye, as it can worsen injuries or introduce foreign objects deeper into the eye.
  • Assess the Situation: Start by assessing the situation to determine the cause of the eye care emergency. Common eye emergencies include foreign objects in the eye, chemical exposure, blunt trauma, cuts or punctures and more.
