Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having blurred vision following a injury by a spark.
This indicates corneal damage in the form of corneal epithelial defect.
This requires treatment by the use of antibiotic eye drops and artificial tears.

Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
With regards
I find this answer helpful
