Title: Sleep Crust
Post by: JONTHEBOMB on June 19, 2006, 11:55:43 am
Has this ever happened to you?

You wake up from a deep sleep and feel some crust around your eye.  You lift your hand up to your eye and rub the crust out.  Only a little comes out on your finger while the rest gets rubbed into your eye.  Then the pain starts with the crust lodged between your eye lid and eye.  So everytime you blink or move your eye, you feel a sharp pain.

This happened to me today and I ended up holding my eye under the flowing facet water for about fifteen minutes.  I got the crust out and now my eye is as red as a cherry.

Na, it's not pink eye.  My eye is almost totally white now and feels fine.  The first time this happened it took me two hours to get the little bugger out.

You're going to have to try a lot harder, if you want that award.

Keep practicing.....

To the OP:

It's a dysfunction of the lacrimals, caused by a small, not-severe-at-all infection. I've had it twice in my life, once when I was a kid and a lot other kids had it at the same time - apparently it was something in the water of the pool we attended in the lil summer town. You got the "it goes out" version. The "it stays in" version is less painful and annoying, but absolutely icky to watch.

eye boogers aren't an infection... it's just your tear glands working harder to keep all your annoynces bottled in the pit of your stomach so that in the future you can become an old bitter whiskey drinking drunk........

Have you ever woken up and you couldn't open your eyes?  The crust hardens around both your top and bottom eyelashes, gluing your eyelids shut?  Good times.

I always have some junk in my eyes, but it's never been so bad I can't open them.  How long do you guys sleep for? weeks? months?  ;D

Secret government thought ninjas sneak into your house to plant GPS tracking microchips in your eye while you sleep. This is how THEY track you. The only thing that helps is if you wash your eye out with a can of Diet Cherry Coke every morning before you brush your teeth. This part is very important because of the enzymes.

That's weird because the longer I sleep the more the eye boogers multiply.
