Content creator Lyd took to TikTok to share a series of photos depicting the aftermath of the incident. \u201cHospital after mistaking my superglue bottle for my eye drops and gluing my eye shut,\u201d she wrote in text overlay in her video. In the 52-second clip, which has amassed over 4.6 million views, Lyd explained that she accidentally glued her left eye shut when she woke up and reached for what she thought were eye drops. The TikToker showed photos of her left eye closed shut while she sat in a hospital bed. The hospital attempted multiple methods to open her eye, including ointment. \u201cThey had me apply an ointment that breaks down and dissolves the glue,\u201d Lyd shared \u201cHowever, that didn\u2019t appear to be working, so medical staff had to resort to other measures. \u201cIt didn\u2019t work so they started picking at the glue trying to separate my eye,\u201d she said. In the video, a doctor can be seen carefully working on her left eye. Eventually, staff were able to \u201cpry\u201d the eyelid open using a specialized tool. \u201cThey took me to a private room and used a metal tool to pry it open and finally got it open,\u201d Lyd explained. She then showed images of her eye after it has been opened, adding that she was in \u201cso much pain\u201d following the ordeal. In the comments, many TikTok users shared similar stories. \u201cDamn and I thought my sister had it bad with my mom putting eardrops in her eye instead of eyedrops,\u201d one wrote. \u201cIt happened to me one time, I accidentally grabbed the E-juice for my vape, got to my mom\u2019s room crying, she was sleeping\u2026 I\u2019m 21,\u201d another commented. \u201cGirl, I did this once. I was wearing contacts and the contact glued to my eyelid,\u201d a third shared. In follow-up videos, it appears that Lyd\u2019s left eye has fully healed now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TikToker ends up in hospital after mistaking superglue for eye drops TIKTOK: icyylydA TikToker went viral documenting her painful recovery, after mistakenly using superglue instead of eye drops.
