Styes On Eyelid, Scratchy Eyes, Burnt Orange Vision After Tasering With Gun In Eyes. Could This Be Allergy?
Recently, a friend showed me her taser gun and in doing so, tasered me in my eyes. Afterward, I noticed that everything in daylight was a burnt orange. This lasted for one day. Since then, I have had several styes on my eyelids and scratchy eyes. I had cataract surgery several years ago so have lenses in both eyes. Do you think these symptoms are related to the tasering or is it allergies? This has gone on for two months, ever since the incident.

Welcome to HCM portal,
other than all other symptoms,stye is basically a low grade infection of glands of lid margin and requires antibiotics tetracycline eye ointment application.Rest of the symptoms may be related to tear gas exposure also.These symptoms may also respond to management of stye.
