Have you seen your eye doctor yet?

Is it swollen, like it hurts if you touch your eye, or does it feel like something is irritating your eye like grit or an eyelash, or is it a constant sharp pain?

Ugh… I’d try to get in sooner than Tuesday!

Pain may indicate increased IOP, you should seek treatment much sooner than Tuesday. Glaucoma is a known complication, so an acute angle closer is possible. Pain usually means inflammation of some sort.

My transplant failed and it was near painless. If you are experiencing pain, go to your doctor sooner rather than later. It may be anything from an infection to a broken stitch scratching your eyelid. Pain is not something to ignore after any surgery.

Is your vision foggy/blurry?

At least give them a call...

When mine rejected (it perforated) I had a lot of pain, redness and tears. I’d definitely go see your doctor, I had my other graft start to reject and it was painless so I guess it just depends, but my first one was pretty painful (I’ve had 3 transplants).

Try to get into the doctor's office ASAP. I had a corneal transplant (it failed a couple of months later), but pain is really concerning to hear about.
