Come Monday, I woke up and realized I can’t open my right eye anymore and it was glued together. I decided not to report to office given my unpleasant visage. I called up KC and described my situation and she advised me to see the doctor because this seems to be ‘sore eyes’. Art and Marvs were curious on why I was on leave so I told them about my eye and Marvs said it might be ‘sore eyes’ given that my eye has water-like discharges. I’m not fond of going to the doctor and taking medicines but at that time, my eye really hurt so I put on my sunglasses and headed to Borough Medical Care Institute. Dr. Subido, is the ophthalmologist during Mondays 1:00-3:00 pm. He diagnosed me with ‘Internal Hordeolum’ after inspecting my eyes and eyelid, and examining my vision. (Internal Hordeolum is not a Sty). He told me this was caused by an infection which I got from anywhere. Because this was caused by an infection, he advised me to stay home for a week so I won’t endanger my officemates into getting it as well once I contaminate the surfaces and objects with my hands (that had contact with my eye). I was given a prescription for Fucithalmic antibiotic eye ointment/drops which should be used twice a day for 7 days. Cold compress will also help reduce the swelling. If the swelling will last for a few more weeks, I may be advised to undergo a surgery to remove the lump. I hope it won’t reach that stage.  Oh, and Dr. Subido is very nice and accommodating, and a great doctor so I’ll definitely consider him as my ophthalmologist for keeps.
