What is cornea or corneal injury?
Corneal Injury refers to wounds or injuries in the cornea. The cornea is the clear tissue that covers the front of our eyes and helps the retina to focus on something. The cornea is a transparent layer that is very necessary for clear vision. Moreover, any damage to the cornea can lead to severe and significant damage to eye health.
Symptoms or Treatment of Corneal Injury?
Eye paining or burning sensation in the eyes can be a symptom of corneal injury. Blurred vision is the most common sign of corneal injury. Watery eyes, redness, puffiness in the eyes, and sensitivity towards light are some other symptoms that can be related to corneal injury.
Few precautions should be taken against it. If the chemicals or something disturbing is splashed into the eyes, they should be immediately flushed. Any objects that get stuck in the eyes should not be taken out without proper professional guidance. Wearing eye patches on the injured cornea or applying a bandage lens on the injured area can help. Professionally prescribed eye drops should be used. Until the injured cornea is fully healed, contact lenses must be avoided.

Jasmin Bhasin Corneal Injury:
Television actress, Jasmin Bhasin recently suffered the corneal injury. In an interview, she revealed that her corneas were damaged because of the lens that she wore and she was unable to see anything after that.
She mentioned “after I wore my lens, I don’t know what just really happened. My eyes started hurting and the pain went worse. I wanted to seek to the doctor as soon as possible but since I had work commitments, so I decided to attend and follow the event and after that go to the doctor. I wore sunglasses for the event and I was not even able to see anything. At the event I took help from one of the management team members and they helped me stand on the stage.”
Furthermore, she revealed that the doctor has told her that the injury would recover in the next five to six days. But it is not at all easy for her to survive this waiting period as she cannot see anything. She hopes to recover soon and get back to her work as soon as possible.
