Corneal Abrasions


A corneal abrasion can occur from direct injury or foreign bodies in the eye. Corneal abrasion symptoms may include pain, light sensitivity, tearing, and a gritty sensation. Our team can diagnose and treat corneal abrasions to promote healing and prevent infections. It's important to understand the causes of corneal abrasions, such as dust particles or contact lens mishaps, so you can seek help immediately when symptoms arise.

Foreign Body Removal


If you get something stuck in your eye, whether dust, metal or another object, immediate foreign body removal from the eye is critical to avoid further injury. Attempting to remove it yourself can cause more harm, leading to traumatic corneal abrasions or infections. Our eye doctors at Vision Health are trained in foreign body removal for the eye, using advanced techniques to safely and quickly extract foreign objects without damaging the eye.

Eye Infections


Certain types of eye infections, like strep eye infections and staph eye infections, can be particularly concerning due to the risk of spreading or causing more serious complications. These infections often present with redness, pain, swelling, and discharge. If left untreated, they can lead to significant discomfort or vision loss.
