Quick question for you Ophthalmologists. I'm an ED doc about to go out in practice. Every so often I get the guy that was cutting wood, welding, ect. and has a corneal foreign body. No perforation or open globe but a simple corneal foreign body. I seem to not be comfortable with these. First I have a tremor and seem to shake a bit when getting close to the cornea. Second I cannot seem to get my patients to cooperate the minute I get close to trying to take these out. I've tried coming in from the side with the needle, obviously tetracaine or burring it out; but between my tremor and patients cooperation these are the most frustrating when they should be simple dispo's. So my question is would you be bothered for f/u next day or two to remove these? If so what should I do to get these damn things out. Obviously in the Optho chair their much more relaxed and don't pull away (kidding).
