Is a splash of Rain puddle water in the eye dangerous?
Hello dear doctor:) I have a question for you today.it was snowing in the morning. Then the snowing stopped. So I took advantage to go in the park and play soccer by myself. The soccer ball bounced on a puddle and that type of water splashed in my right eye. The water seemed dark and filthy. I had no artificial tears or saline solution and took me five hours to go home to use artificial tears. But on the way home I started to have eye pain and headaches. Doctor do you think I could be at risk for bacterial, fungul, or worst Acanthamoeba Keratitis?
No, not at all

Really? What if the water was contaminated?
I still have pain after I woke up
The water seemed dark and had lots of dirt and organic waste
What does that mean exactly
It means I' have read the post and have no more comment. Quit obsessing on this and move on.
