I never had it--until now. I look like I went on a 3-day gin and tonic bender, which wouldn't be so bad if I actually HAD done that. I hope this goes away quickly, before I give it to my wife and/or kids!

We have Photoshop and can heal you.
Then print it, affix over real eye, and no one is the wiser....
jk - UGH - never had it, but heard nasty stories about it.

| Wait until you wake up with your eye sealed shut! That's the coolest. |

| You might have to refrain from using your camera for a while so that the view finder does not become contaminated. |

yucky...stick with the doctors drops and on a side note use hand cleaner anytime you even think you touched your eyes. Most of the time it can be contained to one eye but we have the bad habit of rubbing it and it quickly spreads all over.
Another good trick if you only have it in one eyes is to join the DP Pirates and get a patch for that eye. ;) |

Bonus points for anyone who knows the REAL reason so many pirates wore an eye patch...

So that one eye was adjusted for bright light (above deck), and the other for dim light (below deck). They could just switch the patch to the other eye instead of having to wait for their eyes to adjust. |

Palmetto--you beat me to it! I saw that Mythbusters episode too--good stuff! My eye isn't really bothering me right now. In fact, if it didn't look so hideous I wouldn't even know I have it. I'm back at work, because supposedly if you take a few doses of the eye drops you are not very contageous. I don't know if that is true, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it! I tend to wash my hands a lot anyway, so that isn't a huge problem for me.
As for the porn comment below, well I DID just judge the nude challenge a couple days ago, so... :o)
Kidding! Well done shots in there, no question. |

I feel your pain. I had it about this time two years ago during the Pink Challenge, so shot it for the challenge. Not only did my eye hurt, but the image got hammered...
I don't think it was cause of it not meeting the challenge:-0 |

Yeah, I was thinking of using my eye shot in the "bad" challenge, but I already have PLENTY of bed to mediocre challenge scores. I don't really need another one. |
