If the eye sufferd a thermal burn from extreme heat how would you know if the iris was damaged?

you might need someone's help here.



in a dark room, use a pen torch/any small light source to shine towards one of your eye from about an inch away (indirectly, at an angle). observe to see if the pupil constricts (becomes smaller). swing the worch to the other eye and check for the same reaction.

it should both constrict under normal circumstance. also, the pupil should be perfectly round. oval or irregular might indicate some form of damage.



you might also want to look if there is a difference in iris colour.

your not going to be able to see lights will look very distorted more so at night-thats a sure sign
