Eye of the Beholder

For the last 2 days, I've woken to sharp searing pain on opening my eyes. Corneal erosion or thats what I had previously. A few months after an operation called Photo Refractive Keractotomy ( PRK done w/ a laser ) I went through a dismal period of racing to the clinic ( sometimes from 3 hours away ) to somehow ease or correct the pain.
In the end through through some very helpful persons ( one , a very observant intern ) I was able to lead a normal life. That was 1996.
Since, I've had corneal erosion in mild and very temporary onsets.

This last round for 2 days is reminiscent of those 1996 days.
W/ rest and drops, it will come around to normal again.

Weatherboy is dressed ( scarf etc) and is showing 42 F at 10:30 AM
There is debris everywhere from the ' lashing ' winds of yesterday.
Well ,supposedly we'll warm to 60 F by Sunday.

Some background on item 4. For the past 2 weeks, Canadian papers have been full of reports that remains of 2 Canadians had been found at the site of an oil refinery bombing. the 2 Canadians were thought to be attackers blown up in the confusion.
The young men were known to have sympathetic ties to a Islamic loyalist group.
Since, another schoolmate has turned up in a Mid-East jail, refusing the efforts of Amnesty International. Another school firend has been reported dead and assumed to be in a similar group. good on you, Canada, home of the Jihadist Internationals. Doesn't make us look too good.
