But antibiotic drops were useless.
A fever blister is supposed to be on your lips or in your mouth.
Ive never in my life heard of a fever blister growing on someones cornea.
It was a challenging procedure to get things under control, lasting weeks on end.
After the medication proved to be effective, the virus was somewhat contained.
Unfortunately, however, Juwans eye could no longer be saved.
He was completely blind, Michelle said.
It meant the brain did not recognize the eye anymore and stopped sending signals to the eye.
The gel later protecting the eye evaporated and the eye dried out.
According to the outlet, Juwans eye began to melt away due to the loss of lubrication.
A four-millimeter hole then opened up in his eye.
To prevent the worst from happening, his parents flew with him toCape Townto see a few specialists.
There, he underwent amnion graft surgery in an attempt to heal his cornea.
Michelle had nothing but praise for her baby boy, now 2.
Juwan is such a trooper, hes really just always had a smile on his face.
But he was in severe pain, she shared.
It is not fair for such a tiny human to go through all that.
Kisses come from a place of love.
This poor child must be in agony, one person wrote
