An ocular abrasion occurs when the outer layer of the eye, known as the cornea, is scratched. This can result from direct injury to the eye surface by foreign objects, contact lenses, or even fingernails, leading to pain, redness, and increased sensitivity to light. Recognizing this description is crucial for appropriate management and referral.
