Get Your Life Back

 

It is estimated that nearly 2.4 million eye injuries occur in the United States annually and that nearly 1 million Americans have permanent, significant visual impairment due to injury from medical malpractice to traffic accidents. 

  • Each day, more than 2,000 workers have a job-related eye injury that requires medical treatment. 
  • More than 42,000 eye injuries are caused every day from sports and recreational activities.

The toll in terms of suffering, loss of productivity and economic impact is impossible to estimate.

Eye injuries can occur from a number of things:
  • Cataract,
  • Lasik and Eye Surgery Malpractice;
  • Infected saline solutions;
  • Traffic accidents/airbags;
  • Defective products;
  • Flying pieces of wood, metal, glass, stone, etc.;
  • Blunt injuries, e.g. being hit in the eye by a fist or a ball, or other object;
  • Infectious diseases or chemical, thermal or radiation burns often stemming from the work place.

Eye injuries may result in permanent or temporary, full or partial vision loss, and/or restrictions to the person’s field of vision. 

 

If the injury to the eye is caused by another’s negligent or intentional act, it can become a personal injury case
