West Virginia Eye Injury Lawyers

Experienced Morgantown Vision Loss Injury Attorneys

Losing an eye or losing your eyesight because of someone's negligence is an injustice that no amount of money can take care of. Eye damage and blindness can be caused by several types of injuries, often not associated with direct contact with eye. It is not unusual, for instance, to suffer blurred vision or loss of eyesight as a result of a serious head injury that damages brain connection to the optic nerve.

Some common causes of eye loss and decreased vision not associated with direct injury to the eye include:

• Blunt force blow to the head, causing hematoma and concussion
• Airbag deployment during an auto accident
• LASIK surgery errors
• Defective contact lens lotions, eye infections
• Eye damage from tanning salons

Of course, the primary cause of eye injury is direct contact with the eye, causing damage to the cornea, the iris or other parts of the eye. Such injuries can result from shattered glass or airborne objects striking the eye during a collision or explosion.
