Get Eye Care When You Need it Most
Eye care emergencies can happen when you least expect them. Without proper attention, the emergency could cause serious damage to your vision.
As optometric professionals, we encourage you to visit us immediately if you sustain an eye care emergency. Outside of our office hours, please call 911 or get a ride to your nearest emergency room.
Recognizing an Eye Emergency
Any sudden changes to your vision should be considered an eye care emergency. While many eye emergencies involve obvious trauma or symptoms, some emergencies may not be as apparent.
Symptoms of an Eye Emergency
If you experience any of the following symptoms, contact us immediately:
- Burning or stinging
- Different sized pupils
- Severe eye pain
- Bulging eyes
- Double vision
- Redness or itching
- Bruising or bleeding
- Sudden headache
- Eye discharge
- Eyes not moving together
Types of Eye Emergencies
Apart from noticing the sudden onset of certain symptoms, some situations clearly indicate an eye care emergency.
- Corneal abrasions (scratch on the eye’s surface)
- Foreign objects stuck in the eye
- Chemical splashes or burns
- Infections like conjunctivitis (pink eye)
- Flashes, floaters, or retinal detachment
Your Vision Can’t Wait
In the event of an eye care emergency, quick action could potentially save your sight. Make sure to call us during office hours, or visit your nearest emergency room for immediate medical attention.

Have been coming here for years and love them. Saw Dr Biddle Sr last time and he was so informative. Showed me pictures of my eye with great explanations. Wonderful teacher. Have been having Linda help me pick glasses now for at least 4 years. She makes what would be a long painful process(choosing a frame) quick! I have been very happy with all my frames. The staff is all very nice and helpful… never have I walked in and not found them helpful. I am rough on glasses and they are always helpful in adjusting them and replacing pads. They even text me to remind me that it is time for yearly exam .

Very Honest Doctor, i was so tired of going to “Austin Optometry Group” in orange. I saw Dr Charles Sr, I would highly recommend him. He does a great checkup and explains every step.
