What are common symptoms of chemical eye burns?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain, light sensitiv: Most chemical burns to the eye are painful and cause immediate damage with astounding firing of the nerves on the surface of the eye. A few, like lye, may not be nearly as painful but are in fact among the most serious. If untreated, the pain can worsen, the cornea turn opaque and vision seriously threatened.
