Borat Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Drink urine, I hear by my dads mate it should just about stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 That's a myth, you put that in the eye aswell. Lie on your back and get someone to just trickle it in whilst you roll your eye around in the socket, this will work it round to the back where it seeps in and repairs the damage. Apparantly it's best if it's warm aswell, it's slightly more lubracitive when warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pashley26 Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) All bollocks, nothing makes it go away any quicker, pising in your eye or putting vapo rub on your cheek bones is all bullshit. It's a natural healing process, and nothing you can put over/on/under your eyes will help. Bad news, but it's true...The best way to help your eyes heal after Arc eye (I've had it tens of times, and I've got Glaucoma...) is to drink LOTS of water, use some eye cleansing drops to avoid infection and get over it.A story for you all...Back in the day when I used to have a life I was staying at a girls house having spent the day welding a new front valance onto a Vauxhall Viva, we had been out and had a good night and I'd upset her dad by waking him up (don't know how ) anyway we dropped off to sleep and I woke up at 4 in the morning with arc eye ! Never had it before and I thought I was going to die, I was running around the house naked, blind and crying my eyes out trying to get someone to wash my eyes. Was incredibly embarrassing and will be something I remember forever !!! Edited October 2, 2009 by Pashley26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broggers Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I did it when i wasnt wearing my mask by accident when i first started, i didnt have any problems thoughMy eyes must be hard as nails. 5 Second flash is that it. You wanna get a flash from ali mig that will sort you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrex Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 I was told to try used teabags and rest it on your eyes for a few minutes. It actually felt quite nice, it did kinda soothe the pain slightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigjames Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Anything cool and moist will soothe the pain but nothing will help it heal any faster as Jardo has said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenJohnson Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I had it twice. First time i went to hospital and they put some numbing stuff on there, put patches on my eyes then sent me home with eye drops to put in to ease the pain.
