Eric's last post inspired me to share some pretty amazing shots I was able to get in the office. The camera is of a fixed focus, so its not forgiving and takes quite a bit of practice.
What is amazing about these is that they are all corneal abrasions from girls under 11 years old. For some odd reason, I haven't seen ANY young boys present with the same problem and you'd expect it most from them!
Not a single one of them were crying or in immense pain. That blows my mind even more is that grown men come in here hunched over in tears over smaller tiny abrasions. The following is proof that women can bear pain far greater than men!
Scratched her upper eye with her fingernail. The areas of green are the abrasion. In fact, in all these photos, when you see green, you are looking at an area of abrasion that I highlighted. the second and 4th images are not highlighted..

Fascinating, took a pair of scissors to the eye. Looks more like Freddy Krueger did it!

ran into a tree branch.. You have a central gash and surrounding hazy tissue.
