Posted: 11/10/04 - 17:36 Post subject: You'll shoot your eye out!
OK, well I didn't shoot anything.
Yesterday morning, after I put on little coach's shoes, he vaulted off my lap by sticking his hands in the air, and poking me directly in the left eye, with what I swear was two fingers because I felt them both.
OUCH!
Then, baby coach proceeded to smack me twice in the same eye later in the day. He left my right eye alone. It could be a conspiracy. The two brothers are trying to take out Dad's vision while they are young, so as teenagers they can run wild!
Anyway, my eye hurt like CRAP all night. I woke up with yucky puss underneath my eye, and it's still all red, and I look like I haven't slept in a week.
Although, it is starting to feel better.
Question, should I see a doctor tomorrow?
(get the pun, "see")

Dang, I thought this was a "Christmas Story" thread.
Hope your eye gets better. If it were me, I'd see a doctor.

Pobably not really pus but eye boogers. it sounds like one of them, probaly the finger poke scratched the lense and your eye is trying to offer it a protective and lubricating layer. If it still hurts i'd go just for the drops that can kill the pain, and it's probably a good idea for antibiotic drops too.

yes....yes.....yes..... you don't mess around with your eyes...too close to the brain. I have some celluvisc.
You probably got an abrasion and should have put an eye patch on for 24 hours...now it looks like it maybe infected or ulcerated. You need to see dr....sooner the better. I'm fanatic due to my history of corneal ulcer from an abrasion and my son had developed periortibal cellulitis from conjunctivitis, both started out as simple irritations.
