My diagnosis so far:
Pseudomonas Aeruginosa HH Ulcer
Acanthamoeba Keratitis
First round of healing estimate: 3-12 months
If surgery is needed: 3-5 years
TIPS TO NOT GO BLIND AND WEAR CONTACTS:
+Don't reuse or "top off" cleaning solution. Use fresh solution every day.
+Keep your lens case clean. Replace it every couple of months.
+Wash your hands often, especially before you handle your contacts.
+Take out your lenses, even extended-wear ones, before you go to sleep.
+Don't wear your contacts in the shower, bath, or hot tub. Take them out before you go swimming.
+Read the labels and follow directions on your lenses and contact cleaning solution.
+Always go ASAP to a doctor when there is something up with your eye. Do not mess around or try to "wait it out".
