My vacation here in the Philippines did not go smoothly according to what I have planned and budgeted. For those who haven't noticed I am around, I will be here from December 18 until the 4th of January.
In some sort of bad luck, I became sick just a couple of days after my arrival. I got eye ulcers, a common eye problem for those who usually wear contact lenses. My eyes especially the right one, became very red (as in bloody red) and formed a scar just at the lower outline of my retina. My eyes became very sensitive to light rendering me unable to go out and have my well-deserved vacation. :(
My doctor said that I won't be able to wear contact lenses for a couple of months and strongly advises me to not wear contact lenses at all if I can (and I have even ordered and paid my new contact lenses in advanced, talk about bad luck!). He further recommends that I get a LASEK surgery (the older method of LASIK surgery) within the year. I hate wearing eye glasses so I guess I might go for the surgery by mid of next year.
To my relief, my eye healed just enough, for me to be able to go around in time for Christmas. I'm still a little light sensitive though and my eyes still sting a little from time to time.
