Brampton, March, 2025 – Drs. J & K Gill and Associates has launched Emergency Eye Care Services, providing immediate medical attention for patients experiencing urgent eye health concerns. This initiative ensures rapid intervention for conditions that, if left untreated, could lead to permanent vision loss or other serious complications.
Eye emergencies can happen unexpectedly due to injuries, infections, or underlying medical conditions. In many cases, delayed treatment can result in irreversible damage, making immediate care essential. To address this need, Drs. J & K Gill and Associates has enhanced its services, offering patients faster access to specialized treatment for eye injuries, sudden vision changes, infections, and other urgent conditions.
Recognizing an Eye Emergency: When to Seek Immediate Care
Many people are unsure when an eye issue requires emergency medical attention. Some symptoms may seem minor at first but can quickly escalate into severe complications. Drs. J & K Gill and Associates urges patients to seek immediate care if they experience:
• Eye injuries – This includes trauma, foreign objects in the eye, burns, or blunt-force impact that results in swelling, pain, or bleeding.
• Sudden vision loss – Partial or complete vision loss that occurs suddenly or worsens rapidly.
• Severe eye infections – Redness, swelling, pain, discharge, and extreme sensitivity to light can indicate a serious infection.
• Flashes of light or floaters – These symptoms may signal a retinal detachment, which requires urgent treatment to prevent blindness.
• Chemical exposure – Accidental contact with chemicals or irritants that cause burning, redness, or blurred vision.
• Severe eye pain or pressure – This can be a sign of acute glaucoma or other serious conditions requiring immediate care.
Recognizing these symptoms and acting quickly can help prevent complications and preserve long-term vision health.
What to Do in an Eye Emergency
In an eye emergency, immediate action is crucial to prevent worsening symptoms or permanent damage. Drs. J & K Gill and Associates provides the following guidance for patients experiencing urgent eye conditions:
1. Do not rub or press on the affected eye. This can worsen injuries or cause further irritation.
2. Avoid attempting to remove foreign objects yourself. Seek professional medical help instead.
3. Flush the eye with clean water in case of chemical exposure. Rinse for at least 15 minutes and seek emergency care immediately.
4. If experiencing vision loss, flashes of light, or floaters, do not wait. Contact an eye care professional immediately.
5. For severe infections, do not use over-the-counter eye drops without consulting a specialist. Some infections require prescription medication to prevent further damage.
