Accidental eye injury is one of the leading causes of visual impairment in the U.S. Most importantly, 90% of eye injuries could have been prevented if the individuals had been wearing protective eyewear. Dr. Anika shared some of the injuries she’s seen and shocked us all when she revealed one of the most dangerous rooms in our homes!
