Subject: RE: Prescription Drug Warnings Yep, herpes can affect your eyes. My daughter (age 10) was told this summer she had herpes of the eye by an optomotrist when she got 16 "styes' in less then 6 weeks. But I didn't feel doc knew what she was talking about as (opthlamalogist) and no she didn't have herpes of the eye she has ingrown eye lashes from her lashes falling out from her allergies. But I did learn from a friend - his son had herpes of the eye and he now has such horrible vision that only an eye transplant can help him. Herpes of the eye is comparable to a cold sore on your mouth. But it is very serious and needs proper treatment immediately. |
