SHS Graduate Going Blind After Fixing Artificial Eyelashes

A 24 year-old Senior High School (SHS) graduate is fast losing her sight following continuous fixing of eye lashes.

Maame Esi resides at Adweso, a suburb of Koforidua in the New Juaben Municipality of the Eastern Region with her brother, Paa Yaw.  According to a report by Koforidua-based Bryt FM, Maame Esi is noted for always fixing her eyelashes ever since she completed her secondary education.

Despite several warnings from her father, she became impervious until she fixed the last one which has landed her in trouble.

According to the report, some amount of glue used to fix the eye lashes dropped into the pupil of the eye which has resulted in some health complications.

“For about two weeks, when we couldn’t set our eyes on her, I went to her room to find out if she was there. I entered the room only to find her crying and complaining that she cannot see with one of her eyes”, Papa Yaw brother of Mame Esi revealed

According to Paa Yaw, Maame Esi said she did not think the glue would affect her sight.
