Emergency Eye Care

Thorough, Professional Emergency Eye Care

Unfortunately, eye emergencies happen during normal, every day activities. Accidents involving chemicals, metal, plastic, other particles, or even eyelashes can become lodged in a person’s eye or can scratch the eyes, causing discomfort or pain, and sometimes requiring emergency care. Swollen or red eyes can also be a major concern. Even contact lenses themselves can cause infections or can become stuck on the eye.
