Patient's question:
I am a patient with eye trauma. I developed eye disease because of the impact of a metalworker's light on my eye. I injured my eye accidentally at work. At first, it wasn't serious, and I didn't pay much attention to it. But later, my eye became increasingly uncomfortable, red, swollen, and painful, with constant tearing. What should I do in this situation?Doctor's answer:
Your abnormal eye symptoms are caused by trauma. It is recommended to pay close attention to the care of the eye area in the near future, preventing strong light from directly shining into your eyes. You can apply cold compresses to your eyes daily to relieve redness, swelling, and pain. After the cold compress, you can use some anti-inflammatory eye drops appropriately. Observe carefully. If there is no improvement, you need to return to the ophthalmology department for a follow-up examination to check which part of the eye is injured and then implement timely treatment.
