Eye Emergencies & Urgent Care

Sudden pain, a foreign body, flashes, or a red eye — see a doctor today, not the ER waiting room.

Eye Emergencies & Urgent Care

For same-day urgent eye problems.

You might need this if…

  • Something’s in your eye
  • Sudden pain, redness, or light sensitivity
  • A burst of new floaters or flashes
  • Pink eye / infection
  • A scratch or chemical splash

What’s included

  • Same-day urgent appointments
  • Foreign-body removal
  • Infection & inflammation treatment
  • Flashes & floaters evaluation
  • Referral to a specialist if needed

Common questions

  • Vision plans (like VSP or EyeMed) cover routine exams, glasses, and contacts. Medical insurance covers eye-health conditions — dry eye, diabetic eye exams, infections, injuries, and urgent care. Some visits use one, some use the other, and occasionally both. We sort out which applies and verify your coverage before you’re charged.

  • Call our urgent line right away; we keep same-day slots open for foreign bodies, sudden pain, infections, flashes, floaters, and injuries. Most eye emergencies are handled faster and far more affordably in our office than in an ER. For severe trauma or sudden vision loss, go to the nearest emergency room.
