He gets hit in the eyes more than any other nba player I’ve ever seen. Wear some freaking goggles man. Sincerely a lifelong lakers fan Update: he’s had been poked in the eye and missed part of the game or at least a possession three times since this video! Pray for his eyes come playoff time🙏

[@Makai77]

FS. Kareem, Worthy. Goggles could unlock a next level AD.

[@infinty7409]

Funny part is he used to wear goggles when he was in HS

[@Mdautkreix]

Thicker brow could help. Hit up Lebron’s hair guy.

[@sharonhorton31]

Yes, wear goggles or a mask.He will get the best diagnosis. And move forward. This is not that serious people. AD knows his position. Let's go Lakers Nation.

[@sharonhorton31]

Yes dear goggles or mask. It's playoff time and 14 more games left. I'm not going to worry. Let's Go Lakers. Win or go home. Not on LBJ WATCH.

I scratched my cornea before, and yeah the contacts being out was recommended. However, i didn't have comfort in my eyes until i put my contacts back in 2 days later. They acted like shields from my eyelids blinking or external factors. But eyes heal up really quick compared to other areas of the body.

Thanks doc I was worried about him 👍

[@randyrivers5876]

I’ve had trauma to the eye 👁️ before dr said if the hit was that much closer to my pupil I would’ve went blind in that eye

[@xdgs567z]

Excellent video 👍 I had LASIK 10 years ago, the one that involved rubbing the cornea off and shooting the laser afterwards, instead of cutting the usual flap. 1 week later due to the hot humid weather, I felt a sharp stabbing pain in one of my eyes and my eyes watered excessively with my eyelids shut to the point that I could not even open it. I had to have someone drive me to my lasik doctor who applied some numbing anesthetic eye drops that provide me instant relief from the sharp pain..At that time, I remember my doctor saying there was a tear in the top of my eyes which he had to cut off with a precise scissor. Apparently what happened was my eyes didn’t heal completely from the lasik surgery and the weather caused the top layer to break and tear. After watching your explanation, all of that makes sense now that explains the symptoms I had….but not to worry, my eyes completely healed…. To tell you the truth, I really felt like I was going to lose my eye sight when that happened… but the eyes are incredible in that it can heal completely from a tear in the cornea 👍

[@dangeiger9796]

Can you make a video about Coby White?

Damn, you are quick

[@edkiely2712]

John Stockton had a bad one early 1st quarter in Game #5 of the 1992 Western Conf Finals against Portland with the series tied at 2-2. The Portland player's finger went pretty deep into Stockton's eye and, you could hear him scream-out in pain. Stockton missed the rest of Gm. #5 but, came back and played in Gm. #6 two days later, played well and, you definitely could see the results of the abrasion in his eye!

[@baldeagle4710]

I dealt with this injury back in high school. I was trying to scratch my eyebrow and didn’t realize my pencil was in that hand 😅 my eye was swollen, non stop tears 😭 doc prescribed an ointment and bandaid 🩹 to shut the eye. Took about 3-5 days to heal

[@juanio7036]

I recall AD was playing 2K live as himself and got hurt 😂

[@patrickfernandez6420]

Yup I know how Davis feels I’ve experienced the same situation it’s painful how the doctor explained is exactly how it feels like your eyes tears up a lot, it took me 3 days to heal on the 2 day and 3 day my eye was sensitive to light I had to wear shades but it healed on its own

[@zakaryknight1876]

Please check out the Florida and Auburn injury

[@fastrabbit87]

You got my attention with "chopped off."

[@spoogtastic]

So I've actually scratched my cornea twice and both times they did the eye drops with the dye. It sucksssss, ANY light hurts your eye and you never wanna open it. I had to wear an eye patch for a few days both times and it eventually healed but man, it sucks.

[@HKim0072]

I had / have a corneal abrasion, but it was from dry eyes and sleep particles scratching it in the morning when I open my eyes. Had to wear an eye patch at work (office) and everyone made fun of me.

If the grade of the scratch is only on the first layer of cornea its 1 to 3 days. If in the unlikely event it goes deeper in bowmans membrane it will be longer.

Contact lens will add comfort and help the epithelial cells heal. Antibiotic drops are are absolutely warranted any time the epithelium is broken and never use numbing drops repeatedly for treatment. Call dr glaucomflaken and ask him if this is a pants patient then interview AJ hawk and ask him why he had a pressure patch for this condition last fall 🤔
