Derek Ramsay: “I went to the bathroom, naghugas ako ng mata. It got worse”
Derek Ramsay fears he may be blinded after being rushed to the hospital when his eyes hurt because he looked directly at the UV light he repaired.
Derek and his girlfriend Andrea Torres shared in an interview with Iya Villania and Camille Prats on “Mars Pa More” that they have UV light in the house to disinfect items.
When the actor noticed that the light was flashing, he immediately fixed it.
While he was fixing the UV light, Andrea reminded him not to look directly at the light.
And for a moment, Derek Ramsay looked directly at the UV light.
“But at around 2am hindi ko na maidilat ‘yung mata ko. Talagang they were burning, eh ayoko naman siyang gisingin,” he shared.

Derek Ramsay went to the bathroom to wash his eyes but it got worse.
“I went to the bathroom, naghugas ako ng mata. It got worse. Then it just got worse and worse, so napilitan na akong gisingin si Andrea, at tinakbo na ako sa ospital,” he said.
According to the Kapuso actor, Andrea also put eyedrops on his eyes because she thought it was only “dry eyes”.

“Kasi yung eyedrops na binigay ko, wala namang anything. Hindi siya maanghang, pag-try ko sa sarili ko, wala akong na-feel,” she said.
Based on the article of gmanetwork.com, Derek admitted that he feared he might be blinded by the UV light.
Derek Ramsay, on the other hand, admitted his mistake because he knew there was a warning not to look directly at UV light.
Meanwhile, some local governments and establishments are using UV light to fight COVID-19 despite the Department of Health’s statement that it is not certain that it is effective in disinfection.
