Excerpt from Eye Injuries and Their Treatment

Promptness and decision of action in emergencies are the best tests of the power and resource of any man, and especially of a medical man. At any hour of the night or day he may be summoned unexpectedly to attend an urgent case. Everyone in practice must remember with what trepidation he used at first to respond to such calls, and how anxiously he wondered what the illness might be and what he would be able to do for the patient. After a time, however, the exigencies of general practice habituate one to such sudden demands, and one learns more and more to possess the soul in patience and to trust to experience for guidance; but even then an experienced practitioner may still feel anxious when he is called in haste to attend to some critical condition in connection with the eye. When he arrives at the house the patient may be in great agony, and both he and his relatives all much excited lest blindness or impaired vision is to be the result of the accident. Unless the medical man keep cool and collected, know well what he is about, and is possessed of a fair measure Of common sense.
