Patients typically present with a history of trauma and symptoms of foreign body sensation, tearing, and sensitivity to light.History and physical examination should exclude serious causes of eye pain, including penetrating injury, infective keratitis, and corneal ulcers. Abrasions are the third leading cause of red eye, following conjunctivitis and subconjunctival hemorrhage. Corneal abrasions may lead to loss of productivity at work. In a study of automotive workers, one-third of those who sustained a corneal abrasion could not resume their normal duties for at least one day.

What is Comprehensive Insurance Coverage? When your vehicle is damaged as the result of an incident other than a collision, comprehensive insurance is an optional coverage that will pay the cost, minus your deductible, of repairing or replacing it. For example, you're covered if your vehicle sustains damage from a storm, a flood, a fire, vandalism, or theft.
