A member asked:
What can happen if my son poked his eye?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: This could range from a simple eye pain with no findings to a traumatic hemorrhage in the eyeball that would require bed rest & possible eye surgery. Some kids will actually penetrate the eye with a foreign object that would require removal & repair.
