Hi, people. I was messing around with my face cleaning up some goo, getting ready to leave the house. While trying to remove some stuff around the eye area, possibly a little morg ran the other way, & jumped into my eye. I think I can see him next to my cornea, (that's the part next to the pupil?) Seems obvious what it is as all the other part is blood red.
From the top of my eye to the bottom, on the left half could be a huge moon shaped morg that's all bloody, but I tend to think it's the little bright white thing just outside the bloody half of my eye.
What I thought I would do is take a shower, wash my hair with baby shampoo. I may have a refill on an eye antibiotic. If not, if I can find it, I have an eye antibiotic I used maybe 4 months ago, but was wondering if it may be contaminated. I also have some herbal eye wash. Any suggestions? If it's the same tomorrow, I promise to go to the dr.
Love you guys, freaky

Freaky, I've experienced the same thing. They do 'scramble' or 'fall' from the top of the head or brows right into the eye!
I have that happen alot. ALOT.
I use the bubbles from Tearless Baby Shampoo, and that's how I fix that, and immediately it's fine. If you wait, they go right into the white of the eye, I've watched many times, and I can see the white things (worms) sticking right out of the eyeball till I get those out. Then it's another protocol.

Dearest freaky have you tried aplying a mild solution of warm water and salt. Dip some otton wool and rub it over your eyes 3 or 4 times a day. These things hate salt. lease let me know if it helps solve your problem Much love and hugs. Robbie

I've had it happen to me before too Freakers. I tried eye wash but I think the baby shampoo suggestion works better... it helped mine more so than the eye wash did too.
I guess you haven't gone to the doc yet for the other problem eh? No warm and fuzzies for you then!

Thanks Tony, I did my baby shampoo in the shower, but it didn't work. Looks like I'm dealing with a tough butt.
Salt in my eye? OK Roberta. Boy do I ever hate all these irritating little problems, do this, do that, at least I don't have to go out, & buy the salt.
Well, while I'm on this one, last night I went to get gel caps of Glocosamine to make the majick salve. It cost $25, and they weren't gel caps, but hard capsules. I'm not confused am I?

Oh Freaky, I'm sorry that didn't work. I sure hope that sucker didn't go into your eyeball.
I was reading about "cystercercosis" and they by the many will float around in the eye and cause blurriness, and retinal detachement, (which I know that's happened to some). I know when I crunch my eyes tightly after showering, they're lined up on my lower eye lid, and I can scrape them off.
Freaky, if you absolutely cannot wash it out, please see a doctor, because it really can get bad, and you've got to protect your eyes.

Hey Sandy...that SUCKS! I had that happen to me TWICE! That bad boy jumped the bridge of my nose right into my eye and it wasn't little, except for a little bastard! I took a q-tip with some Clotrimizole on it and held it on the lil' guy for as long as I could. The first time it unattached and eventually wasn't in my eye no more. But the second time it didn't and it's still there. But now I have the little things in both interior eye balls. The PCP called it epil scleritis which is a Lyme sign but fur sure the two times I felt the little buggers jump my nose into my eye was when I was picking and using things on my face to get them off me they are were both little fluke juvies. I understand it's so hard to go to the Doc Freaky, don't feel bad about that. We all know how hard that is, especially when they look at you like you're crazy. Sorry Sandy...hugs and kisses for you from us

You may want to try an eyedrop with borage in it. I use Naphcon-A Allergy Relief by Alcon, you can find it anywhere in the eye care section. There is also Similsan with borage, but I like the Naphcon better. I have also heard through the grapevine that Roto-V may be helpful in this type of situation, but I have never personally used it.
I had one stuck in my eye at work once, and my eye watered so profusely, the ended up sending me home early. I don't get that anymore.
Hugs....Frito

Thank you all for your replys. Just wondering though, when the morgs jumped in your eyes, did they bleed, cause my eye hasn't changed, it's bright red?
Not sure what Clotrimizole is but, so far I've found out someone used it on her nipples, and got all better. Is it prescription? Do I need to work on this right away, or can I just go to the dr. tomorrow?
What does the borage do to get the buger out?
I'm not sure I have it in me to go shopping now, unless I need to.
Thanks again for being here.

Thanks, Carrie. Yes, I AM TOTALLY FREAKED OUT. But, I'm not sure if it's real blood, because it's thick, and could be red goo. Wonder if it is, how the good doc will make the goo be gone. ;D

I still have it, but it seems to be only present when I wake up in the morning or intermittently during the day, instead of a twenty four hour production thing going on.

Fritos is something of a nickname I have on other boards by some posters. I did a search one time on my name and it would seem that another woman has it also and is not me.
I don't know who came first, but Frito really is my "real" nickname and has been my whole life. hehe....I would probably respond to be called frito than my real name, quicker.
About your eyes. I don't know if what I have suggested will help you, but I can tell you about what I experienced. At one time I had biting sensations and then I would look in a mirror and the spot where I felt a "bite" would have a broken blood vessel. I am pretty sure the sensation of the "bite" was the actual popping of the vessel I felt. I do not have a reason as to why my eye vessels would all of the sudden be doing that, except for Lyme and company. My blood pressure isn't abnormally high, but that is another story.
I also had particles or "sand" that would "fall" into my eye. I think I mentioned the worst of it in another post, about my eye watering so profusely they sent me home from work. Ugh. I also had the white eyelashes, the white bumps around the rims, several rows of eyelashes, on and on..... My eyes have been a continuous struggle to get these things out and keep them from coming back. The struggles I could tell!!
I consider my eyes to be much improved but still struggle. The debris, the conjunctivitis, are much improved but not gone. I almost have all the white bumps gone, and I now only have one row of eyelashes, as it should be. The white ones are gone.
I mentioned in another thread I think, concerning using ozonated coconut oil rubs for my face and eyes. I think that and those drops I mentioned have simplified my eye/face routine and seems to be working. I hope it keeps working, it seems like everything we do has some good effect and then we slam into the proverbial "morg" wall. I also use my antibiotic eyedrops before going to bed so it sits mostly in my eyes until that big glob of nasty tasting stuff lets loose from my tear ducts. I think it is actually helping my sinuses along with the ozonated oils.
After knowing my story, it may be easier to decide whether you would want to try or not. I really do think it is the combo as opposed to the single entities referred to. Anywho, I can certainly relate to the eye problems as it interferes with just about everything. I hope your doc will give you an immediate appointment to get this taken care of and rule out any potentially serious happenings.
Take Care!!!
Frito

Please forgive me for waiting so long to respond. I had a bout of apathy, or something, but it's not right. I apologize. I went to the dr. Monday at 3:40, & was there till they closed. The dr. said "nothing to worry about at all. You just got a blood clot. Sure it looks a little scary, but unless there is extreme pain, a change in the eye structure, you just don't need to worry. You bruised it. I didn't argue, & said"What great news, thanks doc." and that was the saga of freaky's bloody eye.

That's ashame Freaky that your eye is in that condition.
Was the doc an opthamologist? I'm curious because an opthamologist might look with the eye equipment to see what's going on inside the eyeball.
