Temporary damage to an eye can cause extreme inconvenience and may result in time off work. Major damage to an eye or loss of sight can have a catastrophic impact upon your ability to drive and work.
Should you suffer an eye injury or problems with your vision as a result of an accident, you have the right to make a claim. We can help.
Important things to consider when deciding to make a claim for damage to or loss of sight
Ultimately, only you can decide whether or not to make a claim. We can help you make that decision, but it's worth remembering:
- If you are claiming in respect of an accident, then you need to make a claim within three years of the date of the accident.
- If you are claiming in respect of a disease or medical condition, then you need to make that claim within three years of the date you knew that disease or medical condition was caused by somebody else's negligence.
- It should be possible to claim the cost of any corrective treatment or aids you require due to the injury you have sustained.
