Sorry to hear love but prayers up to you and keep staying positive
Do you wear them for the 30 days and only take them out to shower? I'm gonna ask my eye doctor to look into that but they probably don't work if you get dry eyes when wearing contactsPrayers and a speedy recovery to you, Race. You got this. ??
And for future reference to the forum, there are contacts that allow you to sleep in them. I use Air Optix Night and Day Aqua.

Damn. Positive vibes for a full recovery.
I know the feeling. I have type 2 diabetes and I had a mix up at the pharmacy where I was taking the wrong medication for about a month. My vision got blurry. I couldn't even read the computer screen. I had to buy a pair of glasses just to read the screen.
So I had some bloodwork done and sent it to my primary care physician. She said I should go to the emergency room because my blood sugar was over 500 (it's supposed to be between 80-120).
But I got everything straightened out.
Anyway, good luck!
Gotdamn. Who's fault. Yours or theirs?
Hey guys so yesterday i learned i have an ulcer in my cornea. I woke up on monday and was unable to see out of my left eye, it felt like i was looking out of a stained glass window
here is a visual:
this is a picture of an intersectionView attachment 420513
my left eye looked exactly like this when looking out of it. I immediately went to the hospital and was told i have an ulcer on my cornea and its a medical emergency. I was given antibiotics and was referred to a specialist. today i went in to see the eye doctor and he told me my infection was pretty bad, even though cornea ulcers can happen to anyone, there are various types and mines was pretty ummm... “aggressive”
he explained to me that in order to save my eye he has to scrape my cornea and remove all the bad cells, then stick a needle in it to relieve pressure and apply antibiotics straight to the area of infection. If he didnt take this route, the chances of me regaining my vision was 0
YALL THAT SHIT HURT LIKE A BITCH!!!

so now im on 3 sets of antibiotics every two hrs (even thru sleep ?) and have a follow up appointment thurs
im not looking for well wishes. i just wanted to let you know that it is important to NOT sleep in your contacts.
Take your contacts out every 8 hrs because you are putting yourself at risk for developing a pretty nasty infection.
I know accidents happen but trust me, you dont want to lose your vision.
I hope I am able to see again fairly soon but if not, it is what it is.
Life is full of so many twist and turns. Be thankful for every moment and try to complain less about little things because it only takes one moment in time for your life to change drastically.
I love my life either way, impaired or not so even with one eye imma stil talk my shit (sorry fellas) :tuh:
and imma still enjoy everything this world has to offer as long as theres breath in my body
anyways peace and love and even if im a ”bitch” i still wouldnt want you to go thru this whatsoever
be blessed ❣
