Okay, I think I've got the answer -
Mar. 13th, 2005 08:34 amInfection of the lacrimal duct or Dacryocystitis.
I think it's only partially blocked, because there's only pain when the eye gets very teary - and once the pain lessens, I'm blowing my nose to get rid of the stuff again.
My glasses rest right on top of the sorest point, soooo...they're off right now.
I'm blaming those, and the bangs I haven't gotten trimmed in too long. Anime hair my ass. Bangs in your eyes are things in your eyes -
And hot packs work wonders. But then, you can't see much of anything.
Without my glasses, I can see about six inches clearly in front of me. The monitor at home is further away than that, so you should see me. I look like a turtle.
The drops prescribed look like the correct treatment, that and the ibuprofen and hot packs.
And this is a baby case. Such a wuss.
Preferred tasks will be those I can do without glasses - books, needlework and so on. Hmm. Time to get creative!
