Eye Injuries: Prevention and Urgent Treatment at Aadicura
Eye injuries are more than just painful, they can lead to permanent vision loss if not treated on time. Whether caused by a sharp object, chemical exposure, or blunt trauma, even a small injury can escalate without prompt medical attention.
At Aadicura Superspeciality Hospital, our eye emergency care team in Vadodara provides quick, specialized care for all types of eye trauma. Ignoring symptoms or using home remedies can increase the risk of complications like infection, corneal damage, or internal bleeding.
Common Causes of Eye Injuries
Household accidents (chemicals, sharp objects, oil splashes)
Workplace exposure (dust, flying particles, welding sparks)
Sports injuries (balls, fingers, racquets)
Road accidents (glass shards, airbag impact)
Children’s play (pencils, toys, etc.)
Knowing the cause helps doctors quickly assess the injury and begin treatment.
Types of Eye Injuries and Symptoms
Scratches (Corneal Abrasions): Pain, redness, and light sensitivity
Blunt Trauma: Swelling, bruising, or bleeding in the eye
Chemical Burns: Intense stinging, redness, and vision changes
Foreign Bodies: Gritty sensation, irritation, or tearing
Penetrating Injuries: Visible wound or fluid leakage - a serious emergency
If you experience any of these, do not rub the eye or self-medicate. Seek professional eye trauma treatment immediately.
