Two weeks ago - Brad gets something (probably metal) in his eye at work. Gets eye drops for it. Clears up.

About a week ago - Pain returns, vision in affected eye getting way worse. Continues to get worse all week.

5 am today - Wakes up in blinding pain and can barely see out of affected eye.

Sooo I drove in to town and we spent about 4 hours in Emergency at the hospital, then got fed up with waiting. "Free" health care is good, but let's just say if you're not actively dying you'll basically be there all day. We made an emergency appointment for 11:45 at the Optometrist. It was $50 but they took him in right when the appointment was.

It is apparently just an abrasion on his eye/lens and should be fine with hourly medicated drops. They seemed unsure though, I guess it's had a couple weeks to get worse so...? I hope it's okay. ;_;

I couldn't get to sleep last night, so now that everything is hopefully okay for the moment, I'm just really tired now.
