Eye problems can come on quickly. Sudden pain, redness, irritation, injury, or vision changes may need attention sooner than a routine eye exam appointment.
Corpus Cristi Eye Professionals provides emergency eye care during regular office hours and accepts walk-ins. If your symptoms begin after hours, you’ll need to seek care from an appropriate emergency provider.
Not every eye problem is an emergency, but sudden or severe symptoms deserve prompt attention. Eye injuries, infections, inflammation, and sudden vision changes can worsen if left untreated.
If you’re unsure whether your situation needs urgent care, call our office during business hours. Our team can help you determine the appropriate next step.
Patients may seek urgent eye care for symptoms such as:
Some symptoms may require referral to another provider depending on their cause and severity.
An eye injury can range from surface irritation to a more serious problem involving deeper eye structures. The right response depends on how the injury happened, what symptoms you have, and how much the eye has been affected.
Chemical exposure, significant trauma, sudden vision loss, or other severe injuries may require immediate emergency care beyond what can be provided in an optometry office. If you are unsure where to go, call during office hours so our team can guide you.
Eye problems do not always happen on a convenient schedule. Corpus Cristi Eye Professionals is open seven days a week, with evening hours Monday through Friday, plus Saturday and Sunday availability.
Our office is located at 5488 South Padre Island, inside the mall near JCPenney and Foot Locker. The extended schedule gives families throughout Corpus Christi more opportunities to get help when an urgent eye concern comes up.
If you have sudden eye pain, redness, irritation, an injury, or an unexpected change in vision during office hours, contact Corpus Cristi Eye Professionals.
We accept walk-ins, and our team can help determine the right next step for your care.
