What is Ocular Trauma?

Your eyes are delicate, and any injury, accident, or sudden impact can cause ocular trauma—damage to the eye that may affect vision. Eye injuries can happen at work, during sports, in accidents, or even at home, and some can lead to permanent vision loss if not treated on time.

Types of Ocular Trauma

    💥 Blunt Trauma – Caused by a hit or impact, like getting punched or hit by a ball.
    🩸
    Penetrating Injury – When a sharp object, like glass or metal, cuts into the eye.
    🔥
    Chemical Burns – Exposure to harmful chemicals (like cleaning agents or workplace chemicals).
    Thermal Burns – Eye damage from heat, flames, or explosions.
    🛑
    Radiation Injury – UV exposure from sunlight, welding, or laser beams.

Signs You May Have an Eye Injury

    ⚠️ Redness, pain, or swelling in or around the eye
    ⚠️
    Blurred or double vision
    ⚠️ Excessive tearing or difficulty keeping the eye open
    ⚠️ Bleeding inside the eye or from the eyelids
    ⚠️ Foreign object sensation – Feeling like something is stuck in your eye
    ⚠️
    Sudden loss of vision or light sensitivity

What to Do in Case of an Eye Injury?

    🚨 DO NOT rub or apply pressure on the eye.
    🚨 DO NOT remove any embedded object yourself.
    🚨 DO NOT rinse the eye if there’s a penetrating wound.
