Thank you for a detailed yet brief explanation of this topic. I can attest to the fact that a small tree branch twig poking my eye caused me great pain and took almost a week to heal with symptoms of pain, redness of the eye, huge amounts of tearing in the eye, sensitivity to light, blurry vision, and mucus formation in the eye. For the first three days I was unable to sleep due to discomfort. The ER doctor prescribed an antibiotic drop while it was healing and due to the presence of likely infection from the dirty tree branch.

Put the gel from your doctors in at night and tape your eyes shut with the medical tape that wont rip your eyebrows out. Use the 0.3% ointment (i think its 0.5% in USA) every 2 hours during the day. Apply the ointment to your eyes before you open your eyes in the morning so they are moist (apply to the part of each eye closest to your nose, that red/pink part and allow your eyes to lubricate before you open your eyes). This helped me immensely and i wrote to my doctor about it. I hope you recover and start feeling good again. You can recover.

I have one, but it doesn’t really hurt. And there’s no blurred vision. Just feels mildly scratchy if I blink. It’s really nothing major. I went in to an eye doctor and he did the dye test. I got an antibiotic eye drop I’m gonna take every 3 hours and it’ll heal fast. Not to major

Ive had this for 12 weeks now. Started from either a scratch rubbing my eyes, or from the beach. I've recently been told by my eye doctor to tape my eyes shut when I sleep, as its possible I'm involuntarily opening my eyes during sleep. Almost twice a week now I cannot open my eyes in the morning and extreme pain keeps me in bed all day. Feels like insects are eating my eyes. I am in Japan and my medication is half the strength of what is show in the video for the drops and gel, and i think thats the maximum they have. The doctor also said this is fairly common, as it was very new to me. I wouldnt wish this on anyone.

@@ineedbbwshoe7906 I now have a painful condition once a month, compared to once a week. And its no longer extremely painful. So my condition has lasted 7-8 months now, and the last 2 months have been a great improvement. Keeping my eyes moist is the key. Having a humidifier on during sleep has been good. Keeping positive is very important as it is depressing, so exercise and being active during days my eyes are in great condition also counter that. I have been told by my doctor that the approaching springtime will be a good time to heal. I estimate I'll need at least 6 weeks of no painful attacks before I can say I am clear of this condition.

I'm wondering if i can just wait and sleep for a few days for my cloudy vision to be clear. I have experienced all the symptoms of corneal abrasion days ago due to an eye infection. I don't want to open my eyes so i just slept through most of the day and took the medicine the doctor gave me. The next day, it doesn't hurt anymore but both my eyes are still blurry. Now, the cloudiness is subsiding, my vision's getting a bit more clearer, but it's still there. Can i just leave it to heal itself without applying anything?

This is a horrible condition. I have had it too for about 30 months now. At first, I would wake up once every ten days with this horrible sensation in my right eye that felt like sand eroding my eye in the most painful way imaginable. After quite some research I learned that this was what was going on with my eye. The incidences became less prevalent, eventually happening weeks apart. The only way I could treat it was with eye drops at night (but that didn't totally stop it, it just reduced the hours I had to deal with it every morning. What I did find was that, if I put something warm (not too hot, but very warm) on my eye, it reduced the pain significantly after several minutes. In the end, I do not wish this even for my enemies.

Medical malpractice is a common problem in America. The opinion of one doctor is often contradicted by another. Always contact professional lawyer if you think your doctor is trying to exploit your health for profits and misreporting your symptoms to hide their faulty prognosis. If you feel like you are being blamed for your health condition, contact a lawyer immediately.

Cornea abrasion do not last 30 months. You are in a for-profit healthcare system. The doctors do not want to go bankrupt and have very high tuition costs for schools. You should see a experienced debt-free doctor that will not keep ruining your eye for profits. These doctors do not have ethics and do not have legal requirements from lying to you.
