Frequently Asked Questions
The most common causes of eye infections are viral or bacterial, such as the microorganisms that cause pink eye. While antibiotics can treat bacterial infections, viral infections cannot. Determining the difference between these infection sources is crucial to a successful care plan. That’s why we always perform thorough eye exams when you visit us for an eye infection treatment in Marblehead.
Additionally, acute injuries to your eye can become infected. Whether your injury is due to trauma or a foreign object coming into contact with the eye, it is best to seek out an eye doctor right away. This ensures the eye’s condition does not worsen or become infected.
If you have debris in your eye that your tears cannot flush out, do not attempt to remove this object yourself. This may cause further injury to your eye and can even cause permanent blindness depending on the object’s location.
For cuts, bruises, and other trauma-related injuries, use a cold compress for the discomfort. Discontinue use if you feel further pain, as this may be a sign you are worsening the injury.
You should call us immediately if your eye receives any kind of injury that results in acute pain. Even if you think you can handle the discomfort, you should never try to tough out an eye injury. Prolonging treatment can lead to further damage to the eye, if there is any, and possibly lead to permanent blindness.
Before your exam, Dr. Orenberg will ask you about how your injury occurred before fitting your symptoms to the appropriate eye exams. Your eyes may undergo testing via imaging, eye charts, perimetry, or even pupil dilation. If your injury is due to a foreign object, the debris will be located and removed at this time. After you’ve received your injury diagnosis, your eye infection treatment in Marblehead can begin.
The severity of your symptoms, trauma, or infection will alter your treatment steps. However, all treatments begin with a series of eye examinations. Dr. Andrew Orenberg will personally oversee every stage of your eye exam.
Getting ready for your eye infection treatment in Marblehead is easy. Remember to bring your current eyewear, a brief summary of your medical background, and a list of the medications you’re taking. With this information, Dr. Orenberg can determine which tests are most suitable for you.
Dr. Orenberg will conduct a range of tests, which may span from a simple eye chart to a dilated eye exam, based on your infection stage and ocular injuries. Rest assured, these tests are painless and you’ll be able to continue with your daily routine after your clinic visit. However, if you receive the tonometry test to assess eye pressure, the doctor will use a topical numbing solution to ensure a painless experience.
Dr. Andrew Orenberg highlights the value of working together in patient care. His role involves creating lasting bonds between doctors and patients and partnering with Marblehead providers to enhance patient health.
Dr. Orenberg received his degree from the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry before completing his residency at SUNY Upstate in Syracuse, NY. After a 16-year absence, he returned to the North Shore to begin practicing eye infection treatment in Marblehead. Now living in the Salem area, he loves Boston sports, music, and Disney, making memories with his family and two dogs.
