A North Carolina mother suffered a nightmare after she accidentally applied nail glue to her eye, thinking she was using eye drops. A misadventure recounted on TikTok by his daughter, which quickly went around the social network.
A moment of inattention was enough to turn the life of an American woman upside down. While trying to apply eye drops, she mistakenly took a bottle of nail glue, a product designed to permanently attach false nails. The extremely adhesive substance immediately sealed his left eye, requiring hospitalization.
Her daughter, Ria Faggart, documented the incident on TikTok, where she showed her mother lying on a hospital bed with her eye still closed and the glue clearly visible. The video garnered millions of views and an avalanche of reactions, ranging from compassion to disbelief. “I can’t imagine how much that must hurt.”wrote one user.

Doctors say the eye likely won’t be able to open for five to seven weeks. Once this step has been completed, a thorough examination will be necessary to assess any damage.
In the meantime, the family faces many difficulties. Unable to work, the mother depends on an online fundraiser launched by her daughter to cover medical costs.
Unfortunately, the patient’s condition does not seem to be improving. In a recent video, she confides that both of her eyes have discharge, and that doctors fear a possible infection. “It’s very tiring and I suffer a lot”she explains, while thanking Internet users for their numerous messages of support.
