When to Seek Urgent Eye Care
Some eye symptoms should never be ignored. Contact us right away if you experience any of the following:
- Sudden loss of vision (partial or complete)
- Flashes of light or new floaters
- Eye pain or pressure
- Redness or swelling that appears quickly
- Foreign object in the eye
- Chemical exposure
- Trauma to the eye or surrounding area
- Signs of infection (such as discharge, excessive tearing, or sensitivity to light)
These symptoms could signal serious conditions such as retinal detachment, corneal abrasions, acute glaucoma, or severe infections. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can help prevent permanent damage.
