So instead of celebrating my birthday last night (March 24th) with friends, booze, and fun– I instead had to nurse my disgusting eyeball all night because of a corneal ulcer in my left eye. HOT!
If you wear contacts don’t be a dirtbag like I am (WAS)–and take proper care of them, or else you could risk losing your eye like I almost did. The strong antibiotic drops I have to put in every half hour (or every hour at night) have been helping but the lack of sleep is not cool.
Here are pictures of my eye from Thursday night when it first started feeling irritated until a few hours ago.
ENJOY!

Well…there you have it… I’m lucky I got treatment when I did. I can finally keep my eye open now and bright lights don’t hurt as much. I can’t stare into the TV or the computer screen for too long without it bothering me, and my vision is still really cloudy but this is a dream compared to how I felt Thursday and Friday. I was so miserable and had to remain in total darkness to not feel pain.
I sure as hell won’t be lazy with my contact regimen anymore–that’s for damn sure!
I realise that it probably hurt like hell, but your Saturday night eyes actually look very cool.
