ROBERT GREEINHAI GH PRESENTS What are the most common childhood eyeinjuries and how should they be treated? The summer months bring with them more outdoor sports for children and more eye inju- ries of a special kind--those caused by baseball and bats, various kinds of racquet sports, bas- ketballs, and even other children's fists. Sports- related injuries are responsible for about two- thirds of pediatric eye emergencies. Sadly, another major source of problems is BB guns, which can cause very serious dam- age, as can firecrackers--the other common cause of child eye accidents during the sum- mer. Most eye injuries should be treated by a phy- sician. If the injury is serious enough, your family doctor or pediatrician will send you on to a specialist. Sports accidents tend to result in bruises, lacerations, orbital fractures, and more seri- ously, bleeding inside the eye or a ruptured globe. Superficial bruises, scratches on lids, and even corneal abrasions can usually be treated by the family doctor. Fireworks explo- - sions and BB-gun injuries or other injuries which penetrate, rupture, or cause something to be lodged in the eye and which cause bleed- ing inside the eye, should have the input of an opthalmologist. You will probably be sentto a Robert Greenhalgh, M.D. * Family Practice * Mercy Medical Offices * 199 Lake Street * Dallas , PA » 675-4995 § specialist also if there are lacerations which are more than a simple scratch, for example if there is some tissue loss or involvement of the tear drainage system. Another type of eye injury which requires an opthalmologist's attention (and which occurs in adults as well) is the burn caused by house- hold cleaners, gasoline, fertilizer or other chemicals. The first thing to do in this case, before anything else, is to flush the eyes with lots of tap water. Then worry about calling the doctor, and the doctor will probably want to see you right away. | There is nothing you need keep in the medi- cine cabinet for eye injuries. A far better precaution is prevention. Close parental su- pervision of children taking part in sports ac- tivities is recommended by experts. And of course, keep all household chemicals out of reach. There is one very important investment you can make--protective eye-guards for your child, preferably with polycarbonate lenses. Even while: playing baseball, glasses with plastic lenses would be better than nothing, and the special eye-guards should be mandatory for racquet sports and hockey. Supervision of children around fireworks during Fourth-of- July celebrations will also do much to reduce injuries. This health awareness is brought to you as a service to the Back Mountain community by Robert Greenhalgh, M.D.. Dr. Greenhalgh is a Back Mountain physician who offers general pediatric. gynecology, and geriatric medical care, on a personal basis. Board- Certified in Family Practice, he is on staff at Mercy, Nesbitt. and Wilkes Barre General Hospital.
