ow

so, um. I can't drive today.

I got hit in the eye last night with a shell casing, and there's a nice long abrsion on my cornea. My right eye, of course. The impact broke the lens out of my glasses, and possoibly the lens, but I don't know.

No driving and no internets, really, either.

Oh dear, that's bad. The eye is such a vulnerable area. I hope you get better real soon. Best of luck!

Ouch! I'm so sorry to hear that! Hope the eye heals up quickly and that the lens isn't broken, so your glasses can be repaired. Get some rest and take care. *Hugs*

Ow, ow, ow.

I'm personally terrified of such things and hope you get better very soon.

Take good care.

Good luck with the eye. Might need some eye antibiotic ointment along the way.

Glass lens probably saved your eye.

Dear God - how dreadful. I hope it heals fast and you're okay (well, obviously you're not, but as okay as you can be).

a shell casing? from fireworks or were you driving in a war zone?
Get better quickly and I'm glad it wasn't worse. *hugs*

[identity profile] timjr.livejournal.com 2009-07-05 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Holy shit. Hope it heals fast and you're feeling better soon.

Owie! Hope you heal fast!

owwwwie! A casing from a gun?

Feel free to call me if you want since I am guessing you can talk. :)

OMG! I hope everything heals quickly and completely.

Dude, not a fabulous ending to the weekend. I hope everything heals well and quickly! Were you able to see an eye doctor?

[identity profile] gordon-r-d.livejournal.com 2009-07-06 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Bloody 'ell. Really hope everything heals okay and well and quickly and all that.

LYSS, what happened? How did you get hit with a shell casing?

Oh my god, this is what happens when I get behind on my flist. I'm sorry, darling - I hope that you're okay!

They were setting off those big-ass, nigh-professional sized fireworks. the ones which none of them bothered to read the safety instructions on, and say people should be forty feet back...

Mostly, it just proves my siblings are all dating white trash hicks.

Holy crap. Are you okay? *is still catching up, obvsly*

[identity profile] lyssie.livejournal.com 2009-07-07 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
*snuggles* I know that feeling.

Yes. Eye is still healing and my eyesight is a bit iffy (and my eye doesn't like light), but I'm good, otherwise. Still in St. Louis, too, since I can't drive.

[identity profile] alryssa.livejournal.com 2009-07-07 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Do you need followup care, or is it just a question of, like, eyedrops or something and a little time?



ext_18106: (Default)

[identity profile] lyssie.livejournal.com 2009-07-07 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Mostly eyedrops against infection and a follow-up appointment tomorrow (after the one today where he yanked a bit of dangling corneal epithelial free).

[identity profile] alryssa.livejournal.com 2009-07-07 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
*nods* Sounds unpleasant. But better that than not having sight in that eye at all. Glad you're on the mend, hon. *hugs*
