Eye Injuries

Experienced NYC Lawyers For Eye Accidents & Injuries

Your eyes are among the most sensitive parts of your body. They are more susceptible to injury than most other areas. In many cases, eye injuries can cause blindness (temporary or permanent), discomfort, and/or a severe decrease in your vision. Eye injuries are often the result of traumatic accidents. In some cases, they are no one’s fault. In other instances, an eye injury can occur due to the negligence of another person or party. If you believe that your eye injury falls into the latter category, then it is recommended that you work with a personal injury attorney that has experience representing clients that have suffered eye injuries.

An eye injury can result in impaired vision, partial or total vision loss. If you or someone close to you has suffered an eye injury as the result of another party’s negligence, you have the right to seek compensation for your losses.
