Re: There's something in my eye
 
Hate to pop some bubbles but there are many people who sleep with their eyes open to some extent.

Most likely you scratched your eye in your sleep. Not uncommon.

Try and ice pack with a cloth around it. No more than 20 minutes on, then at least 20 minutes off. Doc should have told you this.
Best thing you can do is keep you eye closed when you can. Also keep up with the eye drops. Not much else you can do.

I know how it feels Adam. My son accidently scratched my cornea during playtime.

I have the same drops/pastes. I still use them on and off this past 2 years. And it'll never heal properly.


I think DRTY sells eye patches. Looks manly.:giggling:

Adam,
I'd limit your meatspin viewing to 20 minutes or less per day. Excessive spinning of your eyes in circle after circle can't be good for you. You can resume your normal schedule when the pain subsides.

See, it makes sense when you put it that way, right?

Real advice. Thank you.

I did. Drove myself to the ER and the office. I'm really good with one eye. I've been practicing so I can be a pirate, too.

Adam,
Stare at these for a while. It will surely help.

The ice pack is good and keeping the eye closed helps as you've probably found out.

Fortunately the eye is an organ that heals itself fairly rapidly so you should be feeling better tomorrow and see a big improvement in a couple of days.

Just my prognosis. I'm not a doctor but I stayed at a Holiday Inn last night....:jump:

I scratched my cornea in college. Sucked. Wore an eye patch for a couple of days. Felt better. Looked cool too.

Re: There's something in my eye
 
Damn, that really sucks. I've been there and it was NO fun at all. That little BB gun accident back in 6'th grade really sucked. I had to use drops for about two months, with my pupil dilated constantly. It sucks how you cant see correctly out of one of your eyes. I guess I was less then a MM away from my retina. Are the docs worried about you getting acute glaucoma?

I wore contacts for years, and have scratched my eyes plenty of times... :) You'll get over it....just stop crying like a baby. :jump:

Love the lasik surgery-of course, that's probably one of the worst "scratches" you can get.... My eyes aren't any dryer than they were with contacts.... :)

Much better today. Thanks to all except COH. He's just a jackass that gets off on other people's misery. :giggling:
