How would the doctor treat cuts of the eye and lid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends how deep: Superficial lacerations of the lids or eyeball sometimes require no treatment other than antibiotics to prevent infection. Deeper cuts may require patching, bandage contact lenses, or surgical repair for the more serious lacerations.
