Corneal Abrasion Repair

Corneal abrasion repair involves treating a scratch or injury on the clear surface of the eye, known as the cornea. This can occur from foreign objects, contact lenses, or intense rubbing. Repair typically includes cleaning the area, applying antibiotic eye drops to prevent infection, and potentially using a protective contact lens or patch to promote healing. Pain relief may also be provided. Most abrasions heal on their own within a few days, but prompt treatment is essential to avoid complications and ensure proper recovery for clearer vision and comfort.
