eyesore
After putting up with an irritated eye for the past 3 days, I finally trotted down to the optometrist this morning & learned that I had 3 ingrowing eyelashes! Dr Craddock plucked them out and said I was lucky they didn’t scratch my eyeball. Apparently ingrowing eyelashes are a common ailment. I had never heard of such a thing!

As my eyes are irritated as I write this; I’m still waiting on my first pair of reading glasses. Any day now.
Meanwhile, all I can do is relax with my Korla Pandit.

Not so much batting your eyelashes as your eyelashes batting you.

Leading cause of blindness in Central Desert
That’s the mechanism by which trachoma causes blindness – scarring under the eyelid causes contraction, and the eyelashes start rubbing the globe –>scarring.
