Hi, it would seem like my wife has received a blast of urticating hairs to the eye from a B. klassi. This was caused merely by moving a faunarium which led the occupant to flick a cloud of hairs. Either the hairs have directly hit her in the eye or perhaps indirectly via her hands.
Some irritation resulted last night but this morning things seemed a lot worse. By the afternoon she had to admit herself to A&E without knowing the reason behind it.
The eye surgeon could see small particles but couldn't identify them. It was only after leaving the hospital that she's realised what might have been the cause. We've been given some medication to combat infection but I was wondering if there were any other suggestions?
Are the hairs likely to dislodge themselves or should we return to the hospital?
Help and advice appreciated.
