He said they should put nothing in until he knows what the problem is, and then agreed with my own diagnosis saying "there is something in there what do you want me to do with it?". Err take it out please.

Horrid experience you head resting on a frame, sore eye wide open seeing a needle coming towards it. Trying not to shut the eye.
Triage just asked me the usual questions...it's probably a fly or something...no it's been stuck there since yesterday! Ah OK, well we'll get it sorted.

Thankfully, it wasn't that bad, Doc goes...have you seen it, yes it's that black chunck around 5 o'clock on my iris. Oh yes, here's some drops to numb it...fook me they sting...don't worry, it'll go numb.

Then out comes the big cotton swab on a stick, drops haven't worked very well and he's poking about that much the vision from that eye keeps distorting, so figured I'd just grin and bear it whilst my other eye is crying in sympathy.

But all appears good today.

They had a poke about with a stick and got a chunk of grit or something off my eyeball.

Got to look like a pirate for the last 3 hours until the anestetic drops wore off.
