Immediate Assistance for Your Eye Emergencies
During an eye emergency, it's vital to seek professional help promptly and avoid actions that could worsen the situation. Instead of attempting to remove foreign objects or rubbing your eyes, contact Active Eyes Optometry for expert guidance and care.
What NOT to do During an Eye Injury
- Avoid Rubbing Your Eye: Rubbing your eye can increase irritation and cause further damage. It's crucial to keep your hands away from your eye to prevent worsening any potential injuries.
- Do Not Apply Pressure: Applying pressure to your eye can exacerbate the injury and potentially push foreign objects deeper into the eye. Keep your hands off your eye and resist any pressure.
- Do Not Attempt to Remove Foreign Objects: Trying to remove a foreign object from your eye on your own can lead to unintended consequences. You may push the object further or damage your eye. Seek professional help for safe removal.
