[QUOTE="regolith, post: 931110, member: 9267"] Yes, it's highly contagious. Not that I know anyone who's caught it from cattle, I had it as a student when it went through the local population, goodness knows how, then stupidly carried the infection to the other eye myself. Generally scratchy "there's dirt in there" feeling is about right for it starting, the only reason you wouldn't be able to open your eyes is if they're glued shut. Then they look red for several days after, as if you haven't slept for a week. I seem to recall some of the other students visited their doc for antibiotics. [/QUOTE]
