What NOT to do if You Experience an Eye Trauma
If you have injured you eye, NEVER rub the eye or apply pressure to the eye. This may only worsen the problem. If you believe you have a foreign object in your eye, NEVER attempt to remove it yourself or allow another person to attempt to remove it. Instead, seek the help of an eye professional immediately. If after normal business hours you should have someone take you to the nearest hospital emergency room. Ignoring eye trauma and assuming it will go away could lead to permanent eye damage.
