What Does Emergency Eye Care in Overland Park, KS Include?

Eye emergencies don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Professional Eyecare is open 7 days a week at Oak Park Mall (Mon-Fri 10-6, Sat 10-5, Sun 12-5) with same-day emergency appointments and walk-ins always welcome. Our doctors use slit-lamp biomicroscopy, Optomap retinal imaging, OCT scanning, and tonometry to quickly diagnose and treat urgent conditions — from a scratched cornea to a sudden increase in flashes and floaters that could signal a retinal detachment. We handle pink eye and eye infections, foreign body removal (metal, wood, debris), chemical splash irrigation, corneal abrasions and ulcers, acute eye pain and pressure spikes, subconjunctival hemorrhage, and sudden blurry vision or vision loss. Most eye emergencies do not require an emergency room visit. An optometrist has the specialized instruments and training to evaluate your eyes more thoroughly than a general ER physician, usually with shorter wait times and lower costs. If your condition requires surgical intervention, we coordinate immediate referrals with trusted ophthalmologists in the Kansas City area. We accept over 70 insurance plans including medical insurance for emergency eye visits. Don't wait — if you're experiencing eye pain, sudden vision changes, or an eye injury, call us at (913) 735-9961 or walk in to our Oak Park Mall location.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you accept walk-ins for eye emergencies?expand_more
Yes. Walk-ins are always welcome at our Oak Park Mall location, which is open 7 days a week including Sundays 12-5pm. We provide same-day emergency eye care for red eyes, eye infections, foreign bodies, sudden vision changes, and eye injuries.
Should I go to the ER or an eye doctor for an eye emergency?expand_more
For most eye emergencies — pink eye, foreign bodies, scratched corneas, eye infections, flashes and floaters — an optometrist is the better choice. We have specialized slit-lamp microscopes, retinal cameras, and other instruments that most ERs do not. Treatment is typically faster and less expensive. Go to the ER only for severe trauma, penetrating injuries, or chemical burns that require immediate irrigation beyond what we can provide.
How much does an emergency eye visit cost?expand_more
Emergency eye visits are billed under your medical insurance (not vision insurance). We accept over 70 medical insurance plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, and Medicare. Out-of-pocket costs depend on your plan. Call (913) 735-9961 for questions about coverage.
What are signs of an eye emergency?expand_more
Seek immediate eye care if you experience sudden vision loss or blurry vision, new flashes of light or a sudden increase in floaters, a foreign body stuck in your eye, chemical splash or burn, severe eye pain or pressure, a red eye with discharge, or any eye injury. Do not rub your eye or attempt to remove embedded objects yourself.
Are you open on weekends for eye emergencies?expand_more
Yes. Our Oak Park Mall location is open Saturday 10am-5pm and Sunday 12pm-5pm for both scheduled and walk-in emergency eye care. We are one of the only eye doctors in Overland Park open on Sundays.
