At our practice, your eye health and safety are our top priorities—especially when it comes to emergencies. Certain eye problems require immediate attention to prevent serious damage or permanent vision loss.

Common ocular emergencies include:

• Foreign objects in the eye
• Sudden vision loss or changes
• Severe eye pain or discomfort
• Eye injuries or trauma
• Flashes of light or new floaters
  
  

If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek prompt care. Visiting your eye doctor ensures a detailed evaluation and appropriate treatment.

If we determine that you need to see a specialist, our established relationships allow us to expedite referrals, so you get the care you need as quickly as possible.

If you are experiencing an eye emergency outside of our clinic hours, please go to the nearest urgent care or emergency room immediately.

When it comes to ocular emergencies, acting fast and seeing the right specialist can make all the difference—and we’re here to guide you through it.
