In the field, you close the patient's eye and tape an eyepatch over it, which will hopefully -- and gently immobilize the eye in order to prevent further damage. If any of the following are detected, a visit to the doctor is called for: * Mild distortion in the shape of the eyeball * Vision problems -- blindness, blurring, spots (dark or bright) * extreme pain You should consider transport to the doctor for: * Total blindness in the eye * pupilary distortion or sluggishness -- failure to dilate and constrict when exposed to light. * Serious distortion or asymetry of the eyeball. * Leaking of clear or yellow fluid fomr the eyeball (not tears). * Bleeding from the eyeball * Penetration of the sclera (the white of the eye) * Foreign particles embedded in the eye or eye socket.
