What NOT to do During an Eye Emergency

DO NOT

Attempt to dislodge a foreign object using your fingers, tweezers, or any other pointy object.
Rub your eye. This can cause further damage, making the situation worse.
Use eye drops or any other medications unless told to do so by a medical professional.

Consider Protective Eyewear

Many eye-related emergencies are preventable with protective eyewear. We carry a wide selection of sports and protective eyewear and would love to discuss your needs and options with you.
