Today I’m going to talk about corneal abrasion treatment including some alternative remedies that can really help. Imagine leaving your home on a windy day and then boom, something tiny just hit your right eye. You blink a ton; your eye feels irritated and red. If that tiny piece of debris scratches or cuts the cornea, which is the outside layer of the eye, then this is known as a corneal abrasion.

I like to think of it like driving down the road and having a small rock hit the windshield damaging it. We all know that it’s going to happen eventually right? The good news is that most of the time a corneal abrasion doesn’t cause any serious problems and your body will heal the injury on its own. There is one big danger with this condition and can you guess what it is? I’ll give you a hint it’s the same type of danger when someone gets a cut or scrape on their skin.

Yea it can actually get infected and bring about something known as a corneal ulcer. This is why it’s a good idea to heal the injury as quickly as possible to prevent further problems. There is one general rule when it comes to treating this condition and it has to do with not making things worse. Can you guess what it is? I’ll give you a hint it’s similar to a mosquito bite. Yea, you don’t want to rub or touch the eye. The same thing with a mosquito bite because if you rub or touch it, you will make the condition worse.

The first thing someone probably should do if they have this eye problem would be to clean the eye. You can use a saline solution or clean water. There is also a reason why you blink a lot if you have eye irritation and do you know the reason why? Yep, blinking can help remove whatever foreign object that might be causing the irritation, so make sure you blink a lot.

You might be wondering when to see a physician. My thoughts on this are the second you feel that an injury could be serious, it’s best to see a medical professional because it will at least give you some piece of mind.

When it comes to healing the injury one of the best things someone can do is support their body by ensuring they are getting all the vitamins and minerals their body needs. Taking a good multivitamin supplement really is the only way to ensure you are meeting these requirements. Sure you can get them through food, but the truth is that when farmers use chemicals to help their crops grow quicker and bigger it diminishes the nutritional value of them.

The second way to support the body is by doing the same thing to protect a cut or scrape on the skin. Do you know what that is? Yea, you have a wound so putting something to protect it is probably a good idea. This includes an eye patch and you can make weird pirate sounds, which is a bonus.

There are also antibiotic drops you can put in your eye. The only downfall with antibiotics is that they are not good for helpful bacteria that are living in your body. Also because of the overuse of antibiotics some bacteria have built up a resistance to them.

When it comes to dietary supplements and herbal remedies that repair and protect the eye there really are tons of good choices. To throw a few good ideas would be something called lutein, zeaxanthin, bilberries and I can’t forget about omega 3.

To sum everything up the best corneal abrasion treatment would be to wash the eye, blink a lot, don’t touch it, take a multivitamin supplement, wear an eye patch and use antibiotic eye drops. Some really good supplements to take would be lutein, zeaxanthin, bilberries and omega 3.
