Ok, so last night when I was taking out my contacts, I somehow scratched my eye. I'm not sure how on earth i did it, but somehow or another my fingernail (which was clean and short to begin with) scratched my right eye. At first i didn't realize it, but when I layed down to go to sleep, it felt like there was an eyelash in my eye and it hurt really bad, so i went and looked into the mirror and didn't see anything. It felt like that alllllllllll night long and all day today. That's when it hit me that i scratched my eyeball last night. I was unable to wear my contacts today, so that caused a whole other world of issues. My left eye is a -5.00 and my right is a -4.50 i'm soooooooo blind without my contacts - i can't see things close to me or far away.My glasses, which are fairly new and only a few months old are already not strong enough, so i could bairly see to drive to work or what i was doing at work. (my vision won't stop changing
I want lasik eye surgery, but i can't have it until my vision stops changing is what my doctor said. ) I had already made an appointment earlier in the week for the 22nd to see my eye doctor because me eyes have changed soo much lately...so i'm hoping i'll be able to wait till then. My right eye is driving me crazy right now- it itches horribly and it hurts. I'm trying not to rub it, but that's not going to well
I've tried putting drops in my eye, but those aren't helping much eithor. Have any of you ever scratched your eyeball before? If so, what did you do? Colin's done it before and had to go to the doctor and get some antiobiotic eye drops to prevent an infection. Do i need those or can i get by with just regular drops you think? I tried calling my doctor, but since it's the weekend, i didn't get ahold of them. I guess i'm stuck being miserable till next week.
If any of you have any ideas or suggestions, please send them my way because my eye is driving me
