No eyes for me

Woke up this morning and my eyes felt dry and uncomfortable. Looked in the mirror and saw that the left eye it was a little bit red at one corner. Great!! Not on a public holiday. I thought I could go to the mall and lepak a bit. As I had a bad eye infection before and took no chances and went to the eye hospital. Despite the tears coming out of my eyes by now, I managed to drive to the Eye Hospital.

medium_eyehos.jpgWill not mention the name of this hospital but I guess those staying in PJ will recognize it.

It was a public holiday so they were working with a skeleton crew. So there was a nurse there at reception to "filter" the serious and not so serious cases. As it turned out she took one look at my eye and said it was not serious and "come again tomorrow". Ouch!!

I told her to check again in case it was really serious. By now she showed a face and I think I must have irritated her. She shone her penlight in my eyes and again repeated that "No. Nothing serious. Come back another day."
Before I could open my mouth she ignored me and attended the next person to be "filtered". How rude!!

Hmph!! I just woke up after a long sleep to post this. My eyes are ok now.

Happy holidays!!

Lucky you! And good to know that you weren't satisfied with the first one and went off to another one. How careless of the hospital! You should have mentioned the name!
