Eye-yi-yi!

Saw the opthomologist today.  No worries about the eye.  Said it was equivalent to a "bruise" on the arm...just looks nastier in the eye...and will go away in about a week.  No direct cause, just one of those things that happens now and then. 

Best news:  he confirmed that video games had absolutely nothing to do with it.  He also confirmed there was no problem playing video games in the dark.  He did say it was a good idea to remember to blink periodically, or at least take a break now and then to remember to blink.
