    You've burned your retinas, you'll either go blind or have very bad vision for the rest of your life.

    During an eclipse the sun's ray isn't as scattered as any other normal day, but more narrowed into a beam as the moon covers it little by little. It's very dangerous to look at the sun directly during this time because of this concentrated beam of light. Looking at it even for a few seconds can cause damage, but you wont know until months later how bad the damage truly is. Since you're seeing symptoms of damage now, you'll get worse as the months progress due to burning the cells in your eyes. Start going to the eye doctor now and see if they can lessen some of the damage while it's still early.

    You may very well have burned your retinas. How does it feel to be a dumbass? You need to see a an ophthalmologist ASAP!

      And what exactly the fuck is an ophthalmologist gonna do? Inject stem cells into his eyes or something???

        I dunno, but I figure it's an eye specialist so maybe they can help somehow. It can't hurt.

          You think people can just up and see a specialist like that? An optometrist would be more than sufficient sir.

            An optometrist is not qualified to diagnose or treat retinal damage.

              An optimetrist is the first line when detecting any vision changes. And there's no treatment for destroyed retinal cells. You dumb FUCK YOU

            Well, I went to an opthamologist instead of an optometrist for my last eye exam, and I'm glad I did, because he discovered that I have sun damage in my left eye. I'm at a risk for skin cancer, so I basically need to always wear sunglasses, sunscreen and a hat when I'm outside during the day. If I hadn't gone to the opthamologist the sun damage might not have been found.

              You are one of those people who wears sunglasses indoors. Do yoy wear sunglasses while taking dumps?

      Didn't your hero Donald Trump do the same thing during the eclipse? Calling the OP a dumbass just isn't nice either. For shame...

    I feel so bad for you. You poor thing. I personally value the sense of smell over sight so I would suggest developing a bad breath fetish like I have and relying less on your sense of sight for happiness.

    Congratulations, you just messed up your vision.
    I suggest you schedule an appointment with your local eye doctor to check out the damage.

      Precisely! I wonder if it's not a real person, but just a troll. I hope it's a troll, because it would be hella said if it were real. Yanno?

          No, I think it would be very sad. What wouldn't be sad is an entirely different matter.

              What wouldn't be sad would be if the private parts of all rapists and child molesters just disintegrated. *poof* Anything bad that happens to rapists and child molesters is not sad.

    How could you possibly be blinded if you wrote this?

    If you pour bleach in your eyes it should clear up the blind spots.

    To an extent, eyes are like our muscles. You rehab an injury through physical therapy and rest. Most likely, it will go away...but try focusing on something very close, like maybe holding a finger right up to your eyes and focus on the hair. Then focus on something mid range...then a more far sight. As well, find a space with one color... maybe like a white wall.
