These eyes

"these eyes, are cryin'
these eyes have seen a lot of love,
but they're never gonna see another one like I had with you"

Apparently I've been not getting enough oxygen in my eyes because I have an cornea ulcer. I woke up on Friday morning with a searing pain in my eye like someone turned on the light in the middle of the night. It was an extreme case of photophobia. I didn't think much about it until it happened three mornings in a row. On Sunday morning the pain woke me up and it hurt like someone had turned on the light and then stabbed my left eye with a sharp pencil. It was 6am and it hurt so bad and it was the thrid day in a row, I even wept a bit. I was too tired to think straight and I thought I was going blind and I wouldn't be able to see anymore. But after a couple of hours it was slightly better.

I decided to call my eye doctor on a Sunday after noon and he met me at his office 30 minutes later. He diagnosed it and gave me a perscription for steriods mixed in a antibateria solution. He also gave me eye drops that makes my eye dialate to the extreme. That is what the picture is for. Can you guess which eye has the ulcer? So now I can't wear contacts for a week, and I need to take my contacts out a little more often. All so my eyes can have more oxygen. They need to breathe dammit! (Oh and on a side note, that was the first time in about 4 years that I've picked up a perscription for a drug. Drugs are bad, mmmkay? No offense Holly.)
