Ds was at a party this afternoon and another little boy poked his finger in ds's eye, it was 5 hours ago.. Since then he is in agony, shall we take him to a & e ? His eye is all red, he had calpol which helped a bit and he is crying a lot :-{

Yes I'd go to A&E. It's Sunday afternoon, shouldn't be too many drunks clogging it up.

Yes take him. I wouldn't mess around when it came to eyes, I'd seek medical advice.

Yes. A & e. But do you have a choice of hospital? If I were in London I would go to moorfields eye hospital or the royal free (consultant led paediatric a&e).

For eyes it is worth going somewhere with an eye infirmary if possible.

I'm sure you'll be very well looked after. Just feel I aught to pass on the little nuggets of insider info when I can.

Hope your ds is ok.
