Corneal Ulcer



Sunday evening when we got home from church Bryan's eye began to feel very uncomfortable like someone had stuck their dirty finger in his eye.  By the time that we were going to bed the eye was getting more and more red and starting to hurt him quite a bit.  We finally got him to sleep by putting some drops in his eye and putting some ice on it.  I thought the ice might settled the irritation but I knew it might take his mind off of it.  Well he got through the night but it was really really bad this morning when he got up.  He was in major pain and he couldn't open his eye.  So I suggested he call the eye doctor and get an appointment.  

An hour later we where on our way to Northridge to see Dr. Yook.  Sure enough he has a pretty bad infection in his eye and a corneal ulcer.  I posted a picture above which was taken after he had already put some of the drops in his eyes so it is not as red as it was but you can see the little ulcer on his cornea.  

The Lord is good and took care of us again.  Dr. Yook did not charge us for the visit today because he believes so much in the seminary and believes it is his ministry to help out.  We are so grateful and Bryan's eye already feels better after one application of the drops.
