Patient's question:
A 12-year-old child hit their eye with their phone last night. They went to the hospital yesterday for a thorough check-up and were told everything was fine. They have already swollen yesterday, besides the bruise, they used ice. Should they still use ice today?Doctor's answer:
It's best to go to the ophthalmology hospital again today for a check-up. You can have a CT scan of the orbit to check if there's any fracture in the orbital bone. It's recommended that you first have a thorough examination to see if there are any problems around the orbit or eyelid. You should also carefully check your intraocular pressure. It's fine to apply cold compresses if there's no issue! The above advice is for the question "A 12-year-old child hit their eye with a mobile phone last night." I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
