Clinic or Hospital
Many urgent eye concerns, such as a scratch, an irritated eye, or a suspected infection, can be assessed by an optometrist. Some situations need hospital care right away. Call 911 or go to the nearest hospital emergency department for a chemical splash, a penetrating injury, a severe blow to the eye, or sudden vision loss with other stroke-like symptoms.
If chemicals get into your eye, rinse it with clean water right away while you get help. For other concerns, call our clinic before travelling from Hillcrest Village. We will let you know whether to come in and what to do in the meantime.
Call first so we can guide you.
While You Wait
Try not to rub your eye, even if it feels itchy or gritty, since rubbing can make some injuries worse. Do not try to remove an object that seems stuck or embedded. If you wear contact lenses, take them out and keep them out until you have been assessed.
Eye pain, worsening redness, light sensitivity, discharge, or a sudden change in vision are all reasons to call promptly. Some urgent eye symptoms can also point to other health issues. After your assessment, your optometrist will explain what was found and whether follow-up or a referral is recommended.
Our team will help you understand the next step.

Dr rawji and patty are great. I’ve been with them for over 10 years. He was concerned of an issue that I was getting and sent me to a specialist. Patty always make sure that I get Stylish classes every couple of years. Their new office is nice and it located close to 404 and 401.
