Oh, Holey Eyessss…
January 19th, 2008 by trancejen
I have been having some pain and redness in my good (non-blind) eye for a few days now; so, alarmed, I made an appointment at the eye clinic. Since I only have one working eye, I certainly don’t need anything crazy happening with the other one.
Honest to God, I thought that maybe I caught pink eye from the kitten. The vet at the Humane Society had told me that it was indeed transmittable to humans, and when I took her home we were still giving her medication.
That would have apparently have been a minor thing.
My regular eye doctor wasn’t in today so I saw one Dr. K, a tiny little Greek man who was at least one head shorter than I.
As I sat down in the big eye doctor chair he asked, “Are you having pain?”
“Yes.”
“Redness?”
“Yes.”
“Blurriness?”
“Yes.”
“Let’s take a look.”
He shined the Sharp Painful Ray of Stabbing Death into my eyeball, making me flinch, and peered at me.
“Well, when you do something you do it right.”
“What?”
“You have three ulcers in your eye.”
“WHAT?”
“Ulcers. Holes.”
“WHAT? How? Why?”
“Are you sleeping with your contact in, or wearing your contact for too long a period of time? Are you keeping it clean?”
Now I am completely fastidious about my contact lens. I change that sucker out every two weeks and I NEVER sleep with it in. I also make sure it’s very clean.
“No! I mean, I change it! I don’t sleep with it! It’s clean! I swear!!”
I could tell that he didn’t believe me worth a crap.
“Really!”
He gave me a prescription for some drops to put in every few hours, and I have to come back in a couple of days to get checked out again. I guess it’s pretty serious. It certainly shook me up.
Holes. In my eye. Good Lord.
It hurts, but it doesn’t hurt THAT bad. I would never have thought.
I told my dad, and he gave me a twenty-minute lecture on the evils of storing my contact lens case in the john, bathroom germs, and cleanliness. Now I’m completely paranoid regarding the nasties that could be lurking in my bathroom and I’m thinking about dousing the whole thing in Clorox.
Hell, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
So that’s the latest bizarre fucking malady to strike the Trance household. Eye ulcers.
It just gets weirder and weirder.
Happy Saturday.

OMG, that’s terrible! And I thought the Iritis was bad, but ulcers? Damn! Will the holes heal up? Jen, I’ll say a prayer for you and your broken eyeball and am sending a big ole cyber hug!
