"The story, which went viral on social media this week, described how Lian Kao, 23, reportedly did not remove her limited-wear, disposable contact lenses for six months straight and even wore them while swimming.
"As a result, amoeba got under her lenses and tunnelled through her corneas, causing permanent damage that led to blindness in both eyes. The single-cell bug, called Acanthamoeba, can survive in tap water, swimming pools and hot tubs."
How can you be so wacked not to take out your contacts for 6 months?

Because it really isn't funny at all. This makes me wonder if the contact lenses that they sell that can be worn overnight are not a good idea to buy them anymore. After reading that article I now question my reasons for buying them at all. I was already looking into the non laser eye correction procedure and now this makes it a good reason to avoid regular contacts, especially since these amebas things live in tap water. I said a few days ago about how I do not trust the water system in the US. This is another good reason. That reminds me I need to check my filter's capabilities to remove stuff like this.

I laughed out loud at this, thinking "did she not think there would be consequences?".
Maybe my sense of humour is too dark.

Maybe you genuinely love it when women suffer?

Amused? Often times.

If you put your ear to the ground, you can hear the ban hammer charging in from a distance

Anyone without any regard or mercy for the well being of others (male or female), better hope that mercy finds them when they fall short someday.

If you have an instinct to laugh at someone going blind, man or woman, this forum is not for you.
