Protecting your Eyes this 4th of July:
1. Always wear eye wear to protect your eyes. Did you know that 9/10 eye injuries caused by fireworks could have been prevented by wearing protective eye wear?
2. Keep a safe distance from the firework. More than 60% of injuries caused by fireworks happen to innocent bystanders.
3. Keep fireworks away from children. Fireworks handled by children put not only the child, but those around the child at a greater risk of injury.
4. Seek help immediately if you are injured by a firework.
If you have questions about eye safety while handling fireworks, or have an eye injury, please call us. Our Kansas City location’s phone number is 816-455-2020. You can also call our St. Joseph location at 816-279-7015. We are happy to help.
