I can definitively say that my experience with sun-burnt eyes was a lesson I’ll never forget. It was the kind of idiotic mistake you only realize after the consequences hit you. Until you actually face a problem, you never truly know what you’ve done wrong.
How the Nightmare Began
In short, I accidentally burned my eyes by staring directly at the blazing midday sun. Can you imagine the intensity of looking straight into the sun at 12 PM? That’s exactly what I did.
I didn’t look for too long—perhaps somewhere around five minutes—but it was more than enough time for my eyes to be “scorched” by the sun’s rays.
The Immediate Aftermath
When I looked at anything yellow, the color would instantly shift to red or orange-red. I panicked, desperately hoping it was only temporary. However, the situation dragged on longer than I had anticipated.
It took about a week for my vision to correctly recognize red, orange, and yellow again. But then, a new, horrifying problem arose. Blue and green appeared as grey. My heart skipped several beats as I stared in disbelief. I blinked repeatedly, but nothing improved. A wave of self-anger washed over me, fearing I might be stuck with this vision forever.
Making matters worse, these affected colors would continuously shift and mutate when placed next to each other. I felt like my brain was struggling just to identify basic colors.
The Latest Update
Two days later, the situation didn’t seem to be getting better. I still struggled to recognize blue, green, and purple when looking at my desktop or laptop screen. Sometimes, those colors would vanish completely, turning into a desolate grey.
Fortunately, after one week, I could finally perceive most of the colors on my screen again, and they were all vibrant. This was definitely a “scared for life” experience. I’ve been there, I’ve done it, and you absolutely should not.
