Sore.
Sore.
WARNING: The pictures you're about to see are rather disturbing.
My left eye was hurting really badly when I woke up on Tuesday.
To my utmost horror, I realised that it hurts when I tried to open my eye.
Why?
That's because my left eye was sore and red.
- I know what you must be thinking. Yes, they are are post-it notes, no doubt about that.
No, it doesn't have anything to do with watching too much porn,
so please don't get so excited.
In fact, watching too much porn doesn't even make your eyes sore.
But playing too much DotA does.
I had a test on Tuesday,
so there was no way I was going to sit for a re-test.
So I've decided to go ahead, and take the test.
(I think, I had a perfect score. Full marks.)
But I went home, right after the test ended.
Took a long afternoon nap to rest my eyes.
However, I insisted on not going to see a doctor because that would be really troublesome.
Plus, I thought that having sore eyes isn't a really big deal.
I was expecting my eye to get better by the next morning.
And guess what?
It actually got worse.
In fact, blood was starting to clot in my left eye.
The clot was so big, that a red patch of blood formed in my eyeball.
- Yeah, I know. It's disgusting, alright.
Not only that, my right eye was also infected.
So now, both of my eyes are red and sore.
So I've decided to surrender, and pay a visit to the doctor's.
Besides, the clot was scaring the f**k out of me.
I don't want to be blind at the age of 19, you know.
Anyway, my eyes were hurting so much, I had splitting headaches during lessons.
The doctor said that it looked pretty serious, prescribed shitloads of medication,
including painkillers(God bless her soul).
She told me to take the next 2 days off and said that it might take about,
a week or so for the clot in my eye to go away.
Oh shit, I can't let Fiona see me like this on Saturday!
I'm doomed.
P.S: I just hope that my right eye will not have a blood clot as well. It sucks to be Cyclops.
Edit:
I was told, that if a person stares into the eyes of someone whose eyes are sore,
they would be infected as well.
So, I've decided to conduct a "little experiment".
Pick any picture in this entry, that has my face in it.
Stare into my eyes for about a minute or so.
Do not be smitten or charmed by my good looks, focus.
Repeat the process.
Tag me with your observations.
