Do you wear contacts? Have you ever swam with them in? Do you sometimes just "top off" your solution? Learn how wearing my contacts made me blind in one eye and some ways you can hopefully prevent it from ever happening to you.
Help my recovery here: www.gofundme.c...
Like and Subscribe to stay updated on how I deal with this! Hopefully I can stay positive through it all :)
My diagnosis so far:
Pseudomonas Aeruginosa HH Ulcer
Acanthamoeba Keratitis
First round of healing estimate: 3-12 months
If surgery is needed: 3-5 years
TIPS TO NOT GO BLIND AND WEAR CONTACTS:
+Don't reuse or "top off" cleaning solution. Use fresh solution every day.
+Keep your lens case clean. Replace it every couple of months.
+Wash your hands often, especially before you handle your contacts.
+Take out your lenses, even extended-wear ones, before you go to sleep.
+Don't wear your contacts in the shower, bath, or hot tub. Take them out before you go swimming.
+Read the labels and follow directions on your lenses and contact cleaning solution.
+Always go ASAP to a doctor when there is something up with your eye. Do not mess around or try to "wait it out".
Has this ever happened to you or someone you know? I didn't know some of these tips to keeping my chances of infection low, did you learn anything new?
Share this video with someone you know who wears contacts to help them keep their vision!

NEVER GO SWIMMING WITH YOUR CONTACTS. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I'll never do that ever. Acanthamoeba is what I read is commonly found in swimming pools. We contact wearers have a 90% higher risk of contracting the bacteria.

Yeah we’re actually not even supposed to SHOWER in contact lenses because of the microorganisms that may be in the water. These microorganisms are safe to bathe in & drink but they aren’t safe for eyes with contact lenses on them

@@taylorlove643 I wanted to know how your eye was healing after all you went through . I think you're going going to make a full recovery in this case. God can use these mistakes to make us submit to him. When you look to God he said alot about eyes he struck saul down and there was a man instructed by God to pray for saul who became Paul. You see some times we have to go to Go God. And the prayer that's going to really heal you might not be your own so you need to listen. Do you want God to heal your eye .

This sounds like something was in the water. Been wearing contacts for 14 years or so now and worn them everyday basically the whole 14 years. I’ve even had. To where my eye was super red and was stinging and very very sensitive to light. Even to the point where my eye hurt so bad it was like a muscle ache or headache.. but in my eye if that makes any sense at all. It was awful and I couldn’t wear contacts for days at a time when that happened. I’d go 4 days without wearing them in that case. Anytime you feel like there a lash or something in your eye definitely take the contact out where it is occurring because the contact can be torn and a torn contact hurts like hell and will make your eye Red. But throughout e 14 years or so wearing contacts I’ve never had an issue where i seen Pus or anything like that. To me it sounds like something in that body of water you swam in did this to you.. some chemical maybe or something. I wish you the best however and hope you’re ok now 🙏🏼

The first thing the contact seller tells you not to do: Do not ever, ever, go swimming, bath or shower, in any water source, with your contact lenses in. There are organisms (acanthamoeba) in water that 'can' get into the eye from micro-scratches caused by lens use or damaged corneas, where they can cause infection. These organisms are usually not harmful to your eyes, they're washed out naturally, but can be deadly to your eyes if you use contacts. This organism is found practically everywhere, every water source, soil etc. Even in bottled water, never rinse your lenses with any water, always use specialised lens solution. Fun fact: You likely have these organisms in your nasal passages right now.

That's an eye ulcer! I have had that too! when I was 13 I was new to contacts and no one really told me how to take care of them. So I wasn't aware that you shouldn't wash your contact lens case with water. I thought it was suppose to be cleaned with water and water could do no harm cause it water!!! So after a month of me cleaning the case with tap water (5-6 times) one night my eye was super red and itchy. I was unusual case my eyes were super good with contacts but I didn't think too much of it and slept. Next morning it was super red but still I waited for a day to heal. The next day I could see a white ball in my pupil and consulted an online doctor. He asked my family to take me to a doctor. Thank god it was the initial stage and it healed in 4 days. Very scary tho

People often ignore the warning because they get away with so often. Problem is there always that one chance in say ten that you don't get away with it and this happens. This would be a harsh lesson in not to take your eyesight for granted and do as they tell you should do. Some of us don't get the second chance even when we did nothing wrong and start losing our sight to myopic macular degeneration thanks to nothing more then the genetic lottery.

I’ve been in similar situation for me it took about a week for my eye to heal and started seeing again. My problem started because I work with my eyes e contact lenses on and it I went home and was exhausted so I didn’t remove them before I sleep. I slept with them woke up and couldn’t open my left eye. Hardly open it and removed the lenses went to hospital and they cleaned my eye and I was hardly open it and it was all red like blood. It was super sensitive to light and I was hardly open it for the first day. After about a week it became better. It’s bad habit to sleep contact lenses on and I learned that the hard way I did it for long time but it’s big lesson for me because the doctor told me that I might lose Vision if I keep do in it. I’ve been trying to do the Lasik surgery I think it’s better option specially if you don’t like glasses

What are you scared of? If there’s no pain or redness, sometimes when you take off glasses or contacts our vision seems more blurry

Thank you. I've been taking my eyes for granted by not caring for my contacts and wearing old ones. I'm so sorry you had to have this happen to you juat so I would pull my head out of my ass. For whatever reason your video knocked some sense into me and how I have been taking even my life for granted on so many levels. I pray your eye healed and that you're worries and insecurities healed with it. I'm grateful for you and I'm glad I saw this. I googled it because my eyes are always hurting from not taking care If them. I wish you the best, lovely lady. Thank you again! Xoxoxo may God send you whatever you ask for today tomorrow and forever.

First anyone who thinks they have a scratched cornea do not think it will heal on its own most times it wont and you have a huge risk of infection and scarring blindness. Second you are so beautiful its hard to accept but you WILL live your wonderful full life just take good care of your good eye protect it and everyone never put your face, head, hair, eyes in any body of water like a pool, lake, beach put ur body but. Keep your head out i never put my face in those water places or wear good tight fitting goggles dry your whole face b4 taking them off get in the water dont be scared get in enjoy but just your body water will splash but just dont wet your face. Any how big hugs your beautiful hun take care. Im an ophthalmic assistant for 8 years we see this all the time i myself almost gave myself a corneal ulcer from sleeping in contacts which i knew better so even if contacts say its ok to sleep in them i wouldn't do it do it all still but especially not longer than one or 2 days idk contacts are alot of trouble. Thank you for doing this video i know it will help alot of people out. Hugs n love 💙❤️ honey i know its hard but you strive you live you keep your spirits up ok try and keep positive see if there is physical therapy idk hun but you do not give up your plans hun . hugs n love p.s. Im also a contact wearer -4.25 in both eyes 😇💙❤️💙❤️

Your so awesome for staying positive and I am grateful you shared your story. I wear contacts too and I will not be wearing my contacts when swimming. I think maybe not believe your doctor. Look into alternative healing practices. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Live life fully even though you are only seeing through one eye. You are so beautiful. I wish the best for you always.

I'm no longer able to wear contacts after 20 years of using them. Putting them in hurts my eyes and it is painful and uncomfortable to have them inside my eyes. Never used to have that problem.

Jewel Medina hi! I had been swimming for almost 10 days before it happened.. I started feeling something in my eye on the last day and it was pretty instant from there so if it’s been a few days already you should be fine! Just don’t do it again ❤️
