AB  - Prompt  recognition  and  treatment  of  ophthalmic  emergencies  are  crucial  to  prevention  of  unnecessary  visual  impairment.  Using  simple  guidelines,  patients  requiring  emergency  or  urgent  ophthalmologic  evaluation  can  be  identified.  Intensity  and  duration  of  pain,  rapidity  of  onset  and  severity  of  visual  loss  (primarily  assessed  by  visual  acuity,  which  should  be  measured  for  each  eye  in  all  patients  presenting  with  ophthalmic  emergencies),  gross  appearance  of  the  globe,  and  abnormalities  on  ophthalmoscopy  are  particularly  important  parameters.
