Something in your eye? Dr. Ericksen has experience removing different debris from small grass seed to metal flecks. Metal debris from grinding, wood splinters from woodworking, burrs and seeds from fields and gardenscapes, or even glitter can find its way into the eye. Windy Nebraska weather and active outdoorsmen contributes to this year round. If you’re having trouble flushing out debris in the eye, Dr. Ericksen can help. Foreign objects should be evaluated for removal as soon as possible to prevent infection, scarring, and permanent metal rust in the eye.
