Eye injuries
Mild eye injuries usually involve a small object entering the eye and scratching the cornea. The Cornea is a clear protective film over the eye. Things like dust, wood shavings, and even paper can scratch and damage the cornea. A superficial scratch is called a corneal abrasion. The danger in abrasions is that they can become infected and develop into a corneal ulcer.
A scratched cornea can make you feel like you have something in your eye even if the object that scratched it has been washed away. People with corneal abrasions experience eye pain, blurred vision, tears, and redness. Visit a doctor if you feel any of these symptoms.
