Scarring - Blog Posts
Can eyes scar? Like... If you scratch your eye and it heals up does it scar? Do your eyes get scarred up after surgery? If they do does the scarring work the same as scarring on your skin?
Facial Scarring (Matt Murdock/Daredevil)
Recently I’ve been thinking about how Matt Murdock in both the comics and the tv show, has little to no obvious physical damage around his eyes, despite being blinded by chemical burns. So I’ve taken it into my own hands to brainstorm some ideas for what the burns might look like.
Keep in mind, I am not a medical professional. The information here is based on publicly available medical information I found in research papers, alongside my limited pre-existing knowledge.
I would also like to state that different types of burns can be caused by different kinds of chemicals, however comprehensive information about this was difficult to find.
The top three images are various types and degrees of corneal scarring. The bottom two are scaring on both the eye and surrounding area.
I love interactions and if you do any art based on this please @ me! Id love to see it! If you have any questions, ask them and I’ll answer in a part two!
