Always something
My weekend started out with me swearing that there was a rock lodged under my eyelid when I woke up Saturday morning. I tried everything to get the invisible rock out of my eye and forgot about it for a bit while I was trying not to get tetanus while creeping around an abandoned abbey (more on that later).
Woke up Sunday and my eye was semi swollen and itchy. Joe cheerfully informed me that my eye is infected which led to me panicking because I take eye health ridiculously seriously. I think if he said my appendix was infected I would have taken it better. He then attempted to retract the psychological trauma telling me my eye was infected caused by explaining that an eye infection equates to pink eye, which I've never had. If little kids can deal with it, so can I dammit!
Took yesterday off to go to the doctor, who says it's an infection (cue nervous fidgetting) which could possibly be pink eye, possibly be from seasonal allergies (but only in one eye?), or my eye could be fucked up. Either way, we can't narrow it down for at least a week. Shiny.
So I get my script for eyedrops filled and drop some into the offending eye and they burn like the dickens and I now have double vision in my left eye, which apparently is a common side effect. As is not being able to focus properly.
Seeing double is not as much fun as one would imagine. I asked for an eyepatch but was outright denied. If I'm going to be miserable I'd prefer to feel so while looking like a pirate for fuck's sake.
