I have a blurred vision, not focusing and feeling like something is inside and uncomfortable. No red eye or bleeding.
Besides the advice "go to doctor", what should I do to help?
I've put ice on it, also washed the eye with eyedrops.
Now it's two hours and symptoms didn't go away.
How likely is that I have a lasting damage?
"Besides" going to the doctor?! If you have detached your retina, you have a very small window (hours) to get to an eye doctor to save your vision.
how the hell do youu hit youur eye with a door handle???
I don't think youu can do much more until youu see youur doc.
Applying a cold compress for 10-15 minutes is a good idea.But now remove the cold compress to bring back the eyes temperature and pressure to normal level.After about 15 minutes, cover the other eye and check how you can see.If the vision is still blurred,it can be a bleeding or other damage inside the eye ball.In that case see an eye specialist immediately.Don't even wait for few more hours.
It can cause permanent damage.And it is your eye.So don't wait days,not even hours.
I am a family doctor.so this advice may not be perfect.If things turn out OK,don't curse me;just be happy.Good luck.
