She is now warning of the dangers of swimming or showering wearing contacts.Ms Hurst experienced four operations and a treatment in which she had eye drops every half hour. During that time I stayed in my bedroom with black curtains at the window. The only thing I could do was to listen to the radio. One evening, I was so eager to look out of window to get a look of the outside world that I opened my curtains in the middle of the night. As soon as I did this the moon shone in my eyes and it really hurt. I didnt do that again. I have been left with no sight in my left eye and the damage to my right eye could be lasting, she said.Ms Hurst had been wearing contact lenses for five years. I dont even like swimming,she said.
