Understanding Eye Injuries in Atlanta
Eye injuries range from minor scratches to severe trauma causing permanent vision loss. Atlanta’s vibrant economy, including manufacturing, construction, and transportation sectors, heightens the risk of such injuries.
Common Causes of Eye Injuries:
-
- Blunt trauma from fists, balls, or objects.
- Cuts or scratches from fingernails, branches, or debris.
- Foreign objects like dust or metal shards in the eye.
- Chemical burns from household cleaners or industrial substances.
- Radiation exposure from welding or UV sources.
- Workplace incidents involving tools like scissors or nails.
- Sports-related injuries from basketball, baseball, or air guns.
The Legal Landscape: Seeking Compensation
Pursuing compensation for an eye injury involves proving negligence—demonstrating that another party’s carelessness caused the harm. This could involve an employer neglecting safety protocols, a reckless driver, or a property owner ignoring hazards.
Types of Compensation:
-
- Medical expenses (surgeries, treatments, rehabilitation).
- Lost wages and future earning capacity.
- Pain and suffering.
- Future care needs for ongoing vision issues.
Insurance companies often undervalue claims, making skilled legal representation critical to maximize recovery.
