Hi, last night my dog caught me in the eye really hard with her claw. My vision went blurry and the pain was unbelievable (felt like I had a huge lump of grit in my eye I couldn’t get out). I called 111 who said to go to a&e, I did and they looked at my eye with a dye and said I had a couple of abrasions right in the middle of my eye and gave me eye drops and booked me in for a review at the eye clinic Tuesday.
I got home at 7am as we waited in a&e 7 hours to be seen, I’ve neen putting in my eye drops(paste) but today my eye lids now swollen up and my vision in that eye is so blurred I can’t make anything out.
The doc didn’t mention any swelling but just wanted to see if this is normal for this as there’s not much about it on the internet?
Definitely hasn’t been any improvement today but understandably it’s only been 24 hours.
This is literally the most painful thing and I’m feeling a bit helpless, look like I’ve been punched in the eye, really need my vision to come back as I don’t know how I’m going to get about next week and get the kids to school etc.
Anyone had any experiences with this? X ta X
