Providing Urgent Care for Your Eyes
The team at Claresholm Eye Care is always here to help with any eye emergency. Whether it’s a sudden accident, a sports injury, or a spontaneous irritation, even a seemingly insignificant eye injury could compromise both your eye health and your vision.
If you’re experiencing a sudden vision problem or eye injury, call Claresholm Eye Care at (403) 625-4471 during business hours.
If you’re unsure whether your situation is urgent, it’s always best to err on the side of caution. If we’re closed, please proceed to Claresholm General Hospital or the nearest medical facility for immediate attention.
When to Seek Emergency Eye Care
Even a minor eye issue can escalate quickly without proper care. The earlier we assess and treat the concern, the better the chance of protecting your long-term vision. Please contact us if you experience:
- Sudden loss or decrease of vision
- A shower of new floaters—especially if accompanied by flashes of light
- Eye pain, irritation, or redness
- Chemical exposure to the eye
- Bleeding in or around the eye
- Foreign object in the eye
- Extreme swelling or allergic reactions
Why Immediate Eye Care Matters
A quick check-up from an optometrist can make a major difference in your recovery and help prevent permanent damage. Whether it’s a corneal abrasion, an infection, or a retinal tear, getting care quickly improves outcomes and minimizes complications.
As a local practice, we’re just around the corner and here to help—no need to wait for long drives or ER lines if our team can treat your concern directly.
Prevention Starts with Protection
Many common eye emergencies—especially related to sports, home projects, or workplace hazards—are preventable with the right gear. We carry a wide range of protective and sports eyewear to help you stay safe and active without compromising your vision.
Ask us about prescription safety glasses or customized sports eyewear designed to keep your eyes protected without sacrificing comfort or performance.
Your Eyes Can’t Wait
Eye emergencies are stressful—but you don’t have to handle them alone. Whether you’re unsure or in obvious discomfort, we’re here to help guide your next step.
Call (403) 625-4471 during office hours, or visit Claresholm Hospital if we’re closed.
