The eye has it

I somehow got something in my eye last night when I took my contacts out. I couldn't see anything and when Jilda had a look she didn't either.

It felt a little better before going to bed, but this morning it was much worse.

My calendar was packed, but I rescheduled some things to fit in an appointment with my eye doc.
She didn't see anything, but she did see where something had been. I had scratches and that was causing the problems. She prescribed some eyedrops that were laced with gold dust. Not actually, but the thought crossed my mind when I paid the copay.

I didn't have any pictures so I found one of Caillou last summer. He looked much different at the first of this summer when he got a buzz cut, but he's looking more like the dog in this picture every day. I'll take a followup picture of him early in September.

  1. I love Caillou, but most of all hope the 'gold dust' stuff works its miracle!

  3. I hope you don't have permanent damage to the eye and that the eye drops is helping relieve the discomfort.
    Caillou is a beautiful dog.
    Hugs, Julia

  5. Hope that eye heals soon, between you not seeing and Ol Hook not hearing you two are a mess.

  6. Thank goodness nothing is wrong with your eye. I am always blessed to be living in Canada with free health care and now kids under 25 can get their prescriptions for free! Your doggie is so cute but regal looking. I need to watch Lassie Come Home again

  8. You will have to read my post Friday about the bug that flew into my ear. These things are becoming downright aggressive.

  9. I've had a lot of eye and ear problems this summer. I blame a very full Lake Junebug and all the bugs and crap it attracts.

    Love,

  10. Hope the eye is better soon. I know the drops are expensive. When Jack had his eye surgery they prescribed a drop that we had filled and then..after it was paid...said it was a mistake and he didn't need it. Of course we still had to pay for it because they don't take things like that back. I know I work in the healthcare profession but sometimes I think they are highway robbers!
