What to do if you have a scratch on your eye

After a traumatic injury to the eye, such as a cut to the eye by a branch or other foreign object, the symptoms should be used to initially determine if the problem is serious. If there is only a mild foreign body sensation and normal vision, the condition is not considered to be a big problem and may be a simple conjunctival contusion. In this case, you can routinely use antibiotic drops for 2-3 days to prevent the occurrence of local infection. If there is a significant loss of vision or photophobia and tearing, the problem is likely to be more serious and should be treated early at a hospital to clarify the specific injury, as different diseases are treated differently. In the case of severe corneal contusions, topical corneal repair medications should be applied. If it is a ruptured eye or corneal penetration injury, as well as intraocular hemorrhage, surgical treatment may be required, so this condition must be seen as soon as possible.
