Patient's question:
The child was born not long ago, and their eyes always tear up, and they always cry a lot. What should be noted when treating eye trauma?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned involves skin corrosion caused by trauma. First, it's important to assess the depth of the wound. If the wound is deep, prompt debridement is necessary. You should seek treatment at a regular hospital's ophthalmology department. After debridement, avoid rubbing your eyes with your hands, and do not let water come into contact with the wound. Consume fewer spicy and irritating foods. Under the guidance of a doctor, use anti-inflammatory medications to prevent infection. Apply iodine to the wound daily, and it will typically be ready for suture removal after about a week.
