This pain is simply unexplainable. Unless you've dealt with it, you can't imagine it. I would not wish it on anyone. I'm going through an episode now. I've been dealing with this for about three years on and off and am at high risk for recurrence. I've been thinking about surgery but there seems to be mixed information about there about permanent relief/success. I'm just hoping one day I have it 100% healed and gone away from my life as well as all of yours!

⁠@@R.B86 your eye will heal back to normal I promise you. I’m sorry that you are going through this. I bet you are experiencing terrible pain. Just go to a cornea specialist they will help you. After my husband went to the cornea specialist his eye healed within a week. I don’t know what they did to his eye all I know is that there was some special eye contact that they put in my husbands eye and he had to wear it until he went back to his next scheduled appointment to have the contact removed. I think that they gave my husband special eye drops too I’m not sure it was a year ago.. but don’t sit around and not get treatment because it’s going to prolong the healing process and make things more difficult. I’m going to hope and pray that you get the help you need to get better ❤️

Over the last several months my eye has been getting worse and I’ve been in a lot of pain. Super helpful video. I’m going to ask a NEW doctor about this lens. Fantastic advice. 👍

just had this. It is the most intense pain i have ever felt and i have broken bones before and even got stabbed deep with a knife. But the pain from the eye is the most extreme i have felt ever. I was so happy in the emergency room when i got som pain relief drops in my eye. But sadly i could not use that for the healing would not be good. I got treated with two different ointments, one was for herpes virus witch on checkup two days later was not needed since it was no virus in the eye, just scrape/wound. I id not know the eye could cause so much pain. You wont belive it until you experience it yourself

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. Because not even pain pills help for this condition

sounds good. I think I got one from tiny piece of rust come off when i was under the truck and it flew into my eye somehow That also explains why it hurts less today than it did 2 days ago. And also explains why I can not see any speck in my eye in a mirror, but I thought a saw a tiny scratch over my iris area. I am 61 years old, and have had things get in my eye and cause pain for a few days, then walla, pains all gone after 3 or 4 days. I debated going to eye doctor, and if it is not better by early next week will go.

Been dealing with very sharp eye pain since last spring and it wasn't until early August that my optometrist saw me and identified the problem. The pain can get so bad that it triggers frontal headaches on that side of my head. I've been somewhat managing the pain with a clear contact lens and gabapentin, but when that lens comes off boy does it hurt. I notice sleeping I have no issues and it's only when I've been up for 15-20 mintues and blinking that the intense, stabbing pain comes back. I see my optomotrist this Friday to discuss further options because this pain is sure wearing me down and lowering the quality of my life. I never realized how horrible Corneal Abrasions can be. They're absolutely horrendous. I feel like I've been living with chronic eye and head pain because of this. I should also mention I am a migraine sufferer. So I am much more sensitive in my head than most other people.

ive had two in 3 months, its not fun and it sucks. i don't wish that kind of pain on anyone, first time it healed on its own, second time needed the contact lens and that contact lens allowed me to see as my eyes (both) wanted to close with the pain. now the opthomologist who saw me after the second one, refereed me to a laser eye doc and they want to give me another one by burning off the outer layer of cells and let it reheal. I know i am going to be down for a week and the pain is going to suck, but if i never get another one after that, i will say it was worth it, but i don't know when its going to happen, so my anxiety is through the roof, but it will happen when it happens nothing i can do about that.

Someone help me. I am a new contact lens wearer and after I take them off the only symptom I get is it feels like I have a small pebble in my eyes it’s painless but it’s pretty discomforting I searched google and it says I have keratitis which I am scared of. I always wash my hands and rinse my eye with solution every time I wear it but I am scared my eye will probably get worse someone help me

Make sure your eyes are lubricated. This just happened to me because my eyes have gotten very dry so when you take out your contacts maybe put some gel drops or saline solution in your eye to make sure it’s lubricated and the lens slides off.

hi, i am wondering. this morning right after I woke up and still in bed, and dark in the room. i wa rubbing my eyes and thought they were totallyclosed and with one of myfingers i am pretty sure i got myfiger in my actaul eye, although it defintely did not feel like my finger nail hit. just the skin. i guess yo ucould say i bumped the eyeball. not sure exactly which part. now my eye isn't real red, nor did i feel lots of pain. i was able to keep my eyes open all day . it felt like "something" but not painful. just enough to be able to tell. or perhaps since I knew i did it i was worrying. it does feel like the amount of light dpethness is very slightly diffrent than before I did it. but again. it doens't hurt. i don't think my finger nail scratched it. i have not gone to a doctor. oh, and shortly after i rinced my out for a copule mintues. and did it again for a cuol emintues later on. should my eye be ok?

Hi doctor. I had intralasik surgery 7 month ago (Left eye was -8.5 and right eye was -7.5). I got ghost vision in my left eye due to the laser not hitting the center of my eye. Right eye is fine. I did lasik again for my left eye 11 days ago to fix this problem. This is done to treat the untreated area. My ghost vision has increased but the doctor said the laser hit where he wanted it to. There is improvement in my vision but not in the ghosting. My doctor said if after one month and a half no improvement to ghosting, he will remove the outer epithelial of the cornea and put a contact lense. Is this a good idea?

Too often usage of medicinal eyedrops can cause this problem. One is due to the medicine itself, or rather too much of it, especially the so-called cool-feel eyedrops form Japan, ....and the other reason is that whn you use eyedrops too often, you increase the accidental chance of touching the cornea with the tip of of the eyedrop, as in accidentally poking it. artificial tears would be better and not that often of the medicinal eyedrops.....There are more reasons , such as virus....and bacteria infection....It takes a whole week to heal and your eye(s) would be blurry for a while.....rest is the best you can do, avoid bright lights, if you could help it , like direct sun light during sunsets......good health to everyone!

This was two years ago I'm still dealing with it. I don't think it will ever heal. I can go two months without having an episode and then boom it's back. Huh I hate this so much.

@english ugggh man! Luckily it wasn't my cornea or even a tear😭🤣 I freaked out because of sudden conjunctivitis upon removing my contacts with contaminated fingers. My eye guts got so swollen that I genuinely thought I had tore my cornea completely🤣 However the contacts I was removing were wayy overdue to be changed out & my eyes were dryer than the dessert. I gladly threw out that last pair of old contacts and put my glasses on. Never will I ever put the safety of my eyesight at risk again because I didn't like the way my glasses look on me. You only get two eyeballs, cherish them kindly! So no healing ultimately because that wasn't the issue🤣 Luckily!
