@colinwalker Jeebuzz! I had the [virtuous humor detach itself from the wall of my eye](https://www.nei.nih.gov/learn-about-eye-health/eye-conditions-and-diseases/vitreous-detachment), leaving a few blood streaks in my vision. I have a slightly oblong eyeball that was 2% undeveloped thanks to me being born 3 months early; the optic nerve didn't line up in the right spot so everything's blurry in that eye no matter what unless we get Star Trek Federation levels of medical evolution happening before I die! BUT, I was still scared that the lights would turn out completely in that eye; I can still see, just can't read anything below 50 points. All this to say-- I know exactly how you feel right now.

So, scleritis was confirmed. Swelling within the eyeball, photosensitivity, pain just moving the eye. I'm on two lots of drops — one lot of steroids to heal the eye and another lot to dilate the pupil so that it doesn't get 'stuck'. This makes it a bit weird when one eye is blurred. I've got a follow up ... colinwalker.blog
