So I felt almost naked, the only makeup I\u2019d usually wear was mascara,\u201d said Haley. \u201cIf I didn\u2019t have anything on my lashes at all, I didn\u2019t feel pretty, [just] bare and naked.\u201d<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Kennedy News and Media<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cIt felt like a terrible case of pink eye,\u201d she lamented. \u201cUsually whenever you have pink eye, you can put a cold washcloth on them. I tried that and it didn\u2019t work, I tried a warm one and it also didn\u2019t work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Ashland resident added, \u201cI had to blindly walk myself into the bathroom and put my eyes under running warm water and eventually I could peel them open.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, this was only a temporary victory as her eyes would clam shut for another four days.<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest issues was the \u201cthick mucus\u201d-like goop that caked each lash and was nearly impossible to get off, according to Haley. Even when she managed to wipe the goop away, the beleaguered gal\u2019s vision was reportedly so blurry she could barely see. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"596\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_10.jpg?w=596\" alt=\"Fetzer's lash technician told her the symptoms would resolve on their own.\" class=\"wp-image-23591306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_10.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1192 1192w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_10.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=894 894w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_10.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=596 596w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_10.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=298 298w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_10.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 596px) 100vw, 596px\"\/><figcaption>Haley\u2019s lash technician told her the symptoms would resolve on their own.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Kennedy News and Media<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"826\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_14.jpg?w=826\" alt=\"Fetzer said the technician prescribed her lubricant to clear the mucus from her lashes -- a process that was excruciating.\" class=\"wp-image-23591309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1652 1652w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1239 1239w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=826 826w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=413 413w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 826px) 100vw, 826px\"\/><figcaption>Haley said the technician prescribed her lubricant to clear the mucus from her lashes \u2014 a process that was excruciating.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">KennedyNews\/LittleBearPhotograph<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_18.jpg?w=768\" alt=\"&quot;At that time my eyes felt very heavy,&quot; said Fetzer.\" class=\"wp-image-23591314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_18.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_18.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1152 1152w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_18.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=768 768w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_18.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=384 384w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/KNM_ZOMBIE_LASH_REACTION_18.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"\/><figcaption>\u201cAt that time my eyes felt very heavy,\u201d said Haley.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Kennedy News and Media<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>She was also in constant pain. \u201cI started getting very severe headaches and felt a shocking sensation in one of my eyes, it felt like a little zap at the bottom of it,\u201d Haley said. <\/p>\n<p>Finally, not able to take it anymore, Haley went back to the lash technician, who prescribed her antihistamines and a lubricant to take the mucus off.
