They could, if you were poking at them for some reason. Which I don't recommend. I can't cry, so tears aren't a problem. My eyes don't react properly to light and they don't produce adequate moisture. Which means I need it either ridiculously dark or I need my sunglasses on. Too much light is going to leave me a puking, migraine having mess. Hence why I wanted a loan. I don't expect everyone else in the barracks to consider my problems.
Also I need immunosuppressive eye drops or what little moisture layer my eyes have retained is going to dry up, and then my corneas are going to get scratched all to hell and I'll end up blind.
