An American woman has been unable to open her left eye for several weeks. The reason: she mistook her eye drops for nail glue.

An American woman made a mistake when trying to put drops in her eyes. She inadvertently used nail glue, says 7of7. The substance, designed to be applied in small amounts to nails, ended up in her eye, causing serious consequences.

In a TikTok video posted in late December by her daughter, Ria Faggart, the mother is seen lying on a hospital bed, her left eye closed and still covered in glue.

Among the more than 11,000 comments, one user wrote: “Not normal”, while another reacted: “I just put nail glue on my leg and it started burning like crazy. I can't imagine what your mother.”

In a GoFundMe she set up for her mother, Ria Faggart explains: “The doctors say it will be five to seven weeks before that his eye does not open.”

“After that, they will have to assess the damage suffered by the eye”, she writes. She also specifies that her mother is currently unable to work and that both her eyes were initially closed, probably due to a physical reaction.< /p>

Complications

In a video posted Sunday, the mother said her health condition was deteriorating: “They think I have contracted an infection. My left eye still won't open, and fluid is leaking from both eyes.” “It's very tiring and I'm in a lot of pain,” she added.
