Common Eye Emergencies

Eye emergencies can happen anywhere, but contacting a medical professional could help preserve your sight or the sight of someone you know.

Various events constitute an eye emergency. We recommend speaking with our team even if the event doesn’t cause any noticeable symptoms—sometimes, issues can develop over time.

Trauma

Trauma refers to any impact sustained to the eye or surrounding area. Common symptoms could include:

Black eyes
Eye pain
Eye bleeding
Sudden vision loss

Chemical Exposure

Chemical exposure can lead to serious symptoms, including sudden vision loss. Please make sure you’re wearing protective eyewear whenever you’re handling chemicals like:

Chlorine
Soaps
Ammonia
Battery acid
Pesticides
Fertilizer

Chemical exposure could also cause chemical conjunctivitis, an issue that may cause redness, irritation, and discharge.

Foreign Objects

Small particles like dust, dirt, metal shavings, and wood chips could land on your eye surface and cause irritation. In some cases, your tear film can help wash away these particles.

However, if you’re not finding relief, please contact our team immediately.

Eye Disease

Eye diseases like wet macular degeneration and angle-closure glaucoma can lead to various emergency symptoms, including vision loss.

If you risk developing eye disease and experience sudden symptoms, please call our team immediately.

Learn more about eye diseases on our Eye Disease Diagnosis & Management page.

Severe Eye Emergencies

In the case of a severe eye emergency, like punctures, rips, tears, and scratches, please visit your nearest emergency room.
