> Well, I managed to give myself a fairly substantial corneal abrasion on my right eye (don't ask how, it's mildly embarrassing). Today is the first day since Tuesday that I've been even able to keep my "good" eye open for an extended period. My injured eye is patched, and still sore and painful, but thankfully much better than it was the past couple of days; I literally couldn't open my eyes at all.

Take care of that eye SV! I used to be an optician. You should be just fine. Did you go to a doc, or an eye doc? If not, make sure you don't keep the bad eye patched too long. If you did go to a doc, then don't worry about it, I'm sure they're giving you the "what to do" list.
Abrasions do hurt, don't they?! Ouch! Do you wear contacts? sometimes they get rips that we don't notice and that can scratch the cornea. Of course any teeny thing in your eye can scratch it.Take care,
Jazzy
