  • Title: Ocular emergencies: a quick reference.
    Author: Davis R.
    Journal: School Nurse News; 2002 Mar; 19(2):34-7. PubMed ID: 11979658.
    Abstract:
    Sight is precious, considered by many to be the most essential of the five senses. Children's eyesight is especially important, because good vision is related to learning. Regular eye examinations are needed to maintain proper eye health, since some serious eye disorders produce no early warning symptoms. Although prevention is the best defense, eye problems or injuries still occur suddenly and unexpectedly. When they do, recognizing their signs and symptoms and knowing what to do is vital to preserving sight.
