Scratched Eye Treatment Cost In Ankara

A corneal abrasion is a scratch on the clear front surface of the eye (cornea). Corneal abrasions typically cause significant discomfort, red eyes, watery eyes and sensitivity to light. Poorly fitting, damaged or dirty contact lenses, etc can cause a scratched cornea.
Treatment for a corneal abrasion depends on the severity of the wound and the cause. Minor abrasions sometimes can be treated with non-preserved lubricating drops to keep the eye moist and comfortable while the eye's natural healing process takes place. As a precaution, even superficial abrasions sometimes are also treated with antibiotic eye drops to prevent infection during healing. Superficial corneal abrasions tend to heal quickly, usually within two or three days.
