When you have an eye as big as Madras

I have managed to stay away from Conjunctivitis for years now, and abruptly, it appeared last night at 8 PM while I was trying hard to finish writing a document. I must’ve been having the irritating sensation for a couple of hours before it actually struck, but I realised that I was a victim too, only after I felt that my eyes were on fire.

It started off with dirt being discharged out of my right eye; and then; the real pain starts. Your eyes feel like they are being constantly rubbed against sand paper. Watery and puffy eyes, redness, and irritation follow. All nerves split across in different directions. :) I think I’ve made my point here. Don’t mess with me for the next two days!

Care? Yes, keep your hands clean. Stay out of pollution, and wash your hands as often as possible. Yes, it is contagious, and NO, it does not spread to other people if they look into your eye. So if people in your workplace treat you like an untouchable, don’t give a damn. Look at the positive side, you can run as far away as possible from them! Ain’t that good?

Even as I write, my left eye is also having the same symptoms. Right now, I look like I’ve been shipped right out of Monster Inc.
