Common Types of Eye Emergencies

Eye emergencies can appear in many forms. Some of the most frequent include:

• Foreign Objects - Dust, debris, or small particles can irritate or scratch the eye and may lead to infection if not removed properly.

• Chemical Exposure - Household cleaners, fertilizers, or other chemicals can cause severe damage without immediate rinsing and professional care.

• Eye Trauma - Any blunt injury, cut, or puncture in or around the eye should always be treated as an emergency.

• Sudden Vision Changes - Flashes of light, new floaters, or sudden vision loss may signal a retinal detachment or other serious issue.

• Eye Infections - Severe redness, pain, or discharge could be signs of a serious infection requiring urgent evaluation.
