    5 yr old female with Ammonia burn on both eyes

    She was accidentally misted with a bottle of cleaning solution that contained ammonia. If the burn was immediately flushed by water, would surgery really be necessary to replace "anything' (if she has actually made and is still making progress). She can still see, yet her vision is still blurry. I just don't completely trust what I'm being told. Any help would be so incredibly much appreciated!!!!!
