Wilmington Eye Doctor for Allergies & Eye Injuries

If your eyes are red, itchy, watering, or just not feeling right, don’t wait it out. Wilmington Eye Care Optometry offers emergency eye care during regular office hours. We serve patients from Wilmington, San Pedro, Harbor City, and Carson. 

From itchy to pink eye 

We provide in-office treatment for the most common causes of eye discomfort, including eye allergies, infections, and foreign objects in the eye. Our eye clinic can often accommodate same-day visits during office hours, when needed.

Eye Allergies

Itchy, watery eyes? Seasonal allergies, pet dander, dust, or environmental triggers can all lead to red, irritated eyes. We’ll evaluate your symptoms and recommend solutions.

Red or Pink Eyes

Not all red eyes are the same. We assess for viral, bacterial, or allergic conjunctivitis and help you avoid unnecessary discomfort or the risk of spreading infection.

Foreign Body Removal 

Whether it’s dust, metal, lashes, or debris from the job site, we use safe, gentle methods to remove foreign particles and prevent scratching or further irritation.

When to Call an Optometrist?

If something feels off with your eyes, it’s always better to get it checked, especially if you’re experiencing: 

  • Sudden redness or swelling 
  • Eye pain or pressure 
  • Blurry vision or light sensitivity 
  • A gritty or “something’s in my eye” sensation 
  • Discharge, tearing, or crusty lashes 
  • Eye injury from work or home 

We offer emergency eye care during office hours, and we’ll do our best to get you seen the same day. If your symptoms come on suddenly or are getting worse, call us, we’ll help you figure out the next best step. 

What to Expect at Wilmington Eye Care Optometry

When you come in with an urgent eye issue, we’ll start by asking about your symptoms and how they started. From there, we’ll examine your eye thoroughly to pinpoint the cause, whether it’s an allergy flare-up, infection, or something stuck beneath the lid.

We use gentle techniques to remove foreign particles and may use numbing drops or eyewashes if needed to keep you comfortable. If medication is recommended, we’ll explain how to use it and walk you through aftercare, so you leave feeling clear and confident.
