Emergency 101: Steps to Take to Protect Your Vision Health
- Contact Us Immediately: Contact one of our offices without delay. We will offer guidance on the next steps and prepare for your arrival. If you cannot reach us immediately, visit the nearest emergency room.
- Avoid Touching or Rubbing Your Eye: It is natural to want to touch or rub your eye if it's in pain or discomfort, but doing so can aggravate the problem or cause further injury. Don't apply pressure.
- Protect the Eye: Do not attempt to remove foreign objects yourself. Instead, cover the eye with a clean cloth or a shield to prevent additional damage.
- Rinse the Eye with Water: If a chemical enters your eye, rinse it immediately and follow any emergency instructions on the product's packaging.
- Do Not Use Medication Without Consultation: Do not use over-the-counter eye drops or medications until you have been advised by a professional.
