I Missed the Fireworks!

Yesterday was the 4th of July. We went downtown to the city of Seward's celebration and got funnel cakes. Mine had Bavarian Creme on it...one of God's most heavenly delights...lol

I didn't watch the fireworks last night. I wanted to...I'd been looking forward to them. My AN eye hurt. It's been bothering me most of the week. I saw the opthalmologist this week and have an appointment to see an 'eyelid specialist' the 19th, but meanwhile, I just have to bear with it. All of the neighbors were lighting fireworks. We couldn't see them from our driveway, but the smoke was everywhere. It burned my eye terribly. When my grandkids started lighting our fireworks, my eye really started protesting. The bright flashing lights, in addition to the smoke, caused me eye to hurt so bad that I came inside and shortly when to bed.

My eye still hurts today. I keep putting ointment on it, but it doesn't seem to help for more than a few minutes. I will be glad when I see the doctor. I'm afraid to do anything more than use the ointments for fear of causing more problems. The opthalmologist gave me some lubricant gel, but it burns when I use it.
