This story is rather  strange. It sounds to me like ,this woman might have just plastered  eye makeup, on top of eye make up, without ever removing it. She did this for 25 years

I don't know how she could stand it ,and the Dr never saw anything like it before. Globs of old mascara were embedded under her eyelid

I don't know how people can go to bed without  first ,washing their face and brushing their teeth?

@cherry Those pictures were gross. Even under her fingernails. I can’t believe she didn’t feel discomfort much earlier.  Thanks for sharing??🙀

She is a pretty lady, but ,yuck I, also saw the nails

[Caaareful Shopper]

Just the thought of that is hard to stomach.  Everything is OK as long as it looks good from the outside??  The eyes, the fingernails.  I'd hate to think what her other hygiene practices are, or are not.  I very much hope she really takes the doctor's words to heart and can live a much healthier life.  She's a pretty lady, I cannot imagine how she suffered through that all those years.

Gross....plain and simple. Just gross!

Ewww - She is SO LUCKY! Didn’t she have an eye exam during all that time? I only saw the first 2 pictures before I almost lost my breakfast. The underside of her nails aren’t looking too good, either.

Yeah, the nails were almost worse!

Doctors are miracle workers, at times.

Have a feeling behaviors won’t change..and the next doctor

visit might not be as positive to fix....cuz you can’t fix stupid. 

Pretty lady, but...ooof...what else is negligent?

I wonder what brand of mascara she used ....

Let me tell you, I tried IT COSMETICS mascara and that stuff was HARD to remove, never had a problem with other kinds of mascara, even drug store brands with the makeup and mascara remover I regularly use....And not only that, but the mascara made my eyes burn.....

I read this online, but quite honestly, I don't believe that anyone would not remove their eye makeup for 25 years, just adding on top of it for that length of time.

If they did, I think they would have lost all of their eyelashes at the very least, not to mention having unattractive goopy, spider lashes.

IMO opinion, I think this is one of those stories someone made up, hoping it would go viral, for 15 minutes of fame or monetary gain.
