The sum of money that you will get back in a claim for your injuries will compensate you for the loss of your eye. The workmen’s compensation insurance company will use a complicated formula to determine the amount of money that you will receive for your claim. They will review your injury, consider all factors, and will award you a figure that will be a percentage of your weekly wages, multiplied by a certain determinable number of weeks.

Loss of Vision in One Eye

If you have lost vision in one eye, your life experiences will not be the same. Your eyes will be reviewed to determine your 20/20 vision acuity before the accident. If you are able to still see well out of one eye, you may be cleared to drive a car again. Then again, your vision out of one eye may be damaged as well. You may be declared legally blind or partially blind. Either way, you will suffer some type of permanent disability. You may not be eligible for a transfer of an eye, and there may not be any alternative but for you to stay blind in that one eye.

You may also be in pain for the eye that was injured. Many times, people who have a “bad” eye, experience massive pain from that eye. The pain can be so debilitating at times, that the doctors will offer to remove the eye and offer you a glass eye.
