It looks like this:

I’m out of work until the anti-inflammarory eye-drops work.

Usually when someone complains about their eyes hurting I can shut them up by mentioning that I get Herpes in my one eye* (that’s right I get fever blisters in my eye)
However after looking at the picture, you win.

*when asked I tell people it comes from looking for love in all the wrong places

When my brother was in optometry school, I got to look at his ocular disease books; huge glossy photographs of nasty, nasty eyeballs. One of the most disturbing was advanced syphilis; just thinking about it made me squirm, and the picture – ugh!

Ouch!

:eek:

Feel better soon.

Seriously? In the eye? Herpes? Syphilis? Man I don’t know what kind of porn you guys are watching, but count me out!

That hurts me just to read about. Sending out a wish of a speedy recovery!

Man, what kinky shit were you doing?:dubious:

::: shrug::: I was born with it. Or contracted it at a very early age, I can recall an attack at age 4. Went from 20/40 to 20/400 in a day.
Fun time.

GAAAAAAAAA!!!

That sounds horrible! Feel better quick, hear? Yikes!

ASDLKAJSROZCSA… Usually images don’t squick me out, but wowzers that was bad.

Ewwwww

That’s nasty.

Get better soon!

I had that a little while ago! It gave me nightmares that it would “pop” in my sleep and when I, in my dream , would look in the mirror there would be a huge divot on my eye. In the really icky nightmares my eyeball would slowly leak.

I was afraid of that, too. The doctor assurred me that Vitreous Humour is too thick to do that, though.
