I'm colorblind in my right eye (PICS!!)

[st2b]

As the title says, sadly, I'm colorblind in my right eye.

Well here's the story.

I woke up yesterday around 11am with a horrible pain in my right eye, and it was so red it was insane. So I didn't tell my parents because they weren't home and I just thought it was something with my contacts.

About an hour later, I passed out because the pain was unbearable. I woke up in the emergency room with a blacklight over my face, I guess it scared me so I passed out again. I woke up a couple hours from now, and I'm colorblind in my right eye. Apparently I'm lucky I still have my vision, and I could get my color back if I wear this eyepatch for a month.

As of now, I don't feel any pain because I'm on some really crazy pain killers.



To Supravillan, I got the valve covers, alternator, most of the intake, fuel rail, and the throttle body done. Doctor told my stepdad I can work in 3 days! Woot!

Did they give you any kind of explanation as to why you went colorblind? Will the color come back. Sorry to hear though.

+1....explain....


i currently have subonjunctival hemmorage (according to webmd) in my right eye from a couple asshole bouncers over the weeked....hopefully it didn't start out that way :aigo:

 

[JASONA70]

did you sleep with your contacts on..? or do you have the night contacts? did you clean it well enough? it might be a chance that your eye got infected from dirty contacts. the infection ultimately leads to blindness, your very lucky you're colorblind. sorry to hear the bad news. get well

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

 

[st2b]

They said where I have the temporary (Like 2 month) contacts, I need to take them out every night. And I didn't.

They said it's gotten too bad for me to fix the colorblind. They said the contact I was prescribed for, is the wrong type. It's too tight on my eye and now it's got a bad infection.

I'll take pics of it here soon, but right now, the loritabs (sp) are kicking in. Thanks guys!

I'm not getting nowhere near you.......that sounds fatal...........:evil2:


Matt, I told you if you kept doing that, you'd go blind...........:naughty:

contacts are a definite bitch when they don't fit right, hope you feel better

LMAO, actually its the internal bleeding of the eye

some bouncers at a local club ruffed me up pretty good, destroyed my favortie jeans, but only really walked away with the eye issue, a couple marks on my neck from when they were choking me beyond the ability to breath/talk for myself as they "escorted me out", and some marks from my face breaking my fall on the concrete on 2 occasions (hardly noticeable though) :3d_frown:


I still have no idea WHY they did it considering the fact 10 minutes before the head bouncer/manager was "buying" me shots...:nono::nono:

needless to say i won't ever be going back there...the more i tell people at my school the more stories i hear of people getting roughed up pretty good there too....its just unnecessary

st2b: Sorry to hear man, I would be very freaked out and bummed if I woke up like that. Sleeping with your contacts is a horrible idea, I'm sure know you know that though .

There was a guy who never took out his contacts and for a year places a new one over the old one. It became a solid layer attached to his eye and had to be surgically removed. I hope you get the colored vision back in yourt eye. In the very least, I hope it doesn't get any worse.

St2b, That really sucks man.. I'd freak the hell out too

 

[st2b]

Thanks guys.

And lol Jay.

I still can't see color, and everything is like foggy. But my left eye is perfect. I seem to be fine with no pain, but I feel really goofy because of the pain killers.

The doctor said if I didn't take them out ASAP like I did, they would have rolled behind my eye and I would have to gone under the knife.

To anyone thinking about getting contacts, DON'T!

[Big Wang Bandit]

I'm gonna start taking my contacts out now :X

Still gonna buy a pair of glasses for my birthday tho.

Lemme take mine out now haha

The black stuff on my face is the tape residue from the patch.

 

[speed]

why is the patch over your left eye in the last pic?
