welding flash, i suggest going to the er, they will give you some pain killers and special eye drops, flash can f' up your eyes if your not careful.

I hope the feeling goes away after seeking medical attention. This is serious and could well be permanent damage. It only takes once :miff:

X1000 have fun at the ER

Visine will help but it isn't the cure all, go see a doctor if the pain lasts more then a day. you may have scorched your retnas

ER dude, you don't wanna gamble on your vision. GO now!

im pretty sure patato slices on your eyes is supose to help. no im not kidding. and you should probly go to the doctor.

Im not gonna go to the ER, it has happend befour once it just feels like shit. Im not sure if its as bad as it was beofur but it sucks I did the old turn away and close your eyes. Im not goona go to sleep befour I xcan see again though. The only other time this happend I went to bed and when i work up I though I was blind.

if its bad how long dose it take to get there I was done welding a few hours and then on my way home it hit me everything turned a little red now im in pain

Yeh feels nice did that to my eyes welding my cage few years ago. I went to the ER got drops and bandages 2 days later i could see

[Blackbeast2]

Im a dumbass its offical

[Captain Ledd]

Seriously, your retna's get physically damaged doing that. looking at a super bright light can truely cook your eyes to the point where they will not heal back and you will go blind.

Go to the doctor.

i couldnt find anything on it but i pretty sure my grandpa told me back in the day when it happened to him he went to the doc and was told to cut a potato in half and put it on his eyes. It's probly only going to get worse for a wile anyway. your eyes are pretty much sunburned and blistering. might want to go get those looked at

ER quit dickin around, u cant even web wheel that good if yer blind, been there dun that.

[MuddyPaws]

Yea, ER...I have seen flash's take several hours to start hurting and when they do start hurting it gets worse for hours.
