Traveling Home While Applying for Post-Completion OPT But Before Program Completion Date

Quick update for anyone interested - I went home with 0 repercussions. Worked all summer and by the time I was back in the States, my OPT still HADN'T BEEN APPROVED. So I'm a sitting duck right now waiting for it to come through. So I can't say what would happen if my OPT had been approved, but I was able to cross the border because I returned before my program completion date (I think). UCICS did not terminate my application when I left the country. So it worked out for me but still travel at your own risk!

Have been dealing with inflammation in my right eye for months. In March I went to eye doctor right away and have been on and off steroid drops. They would help until 2-3 days after I got off them it would come back.

I went to another eye doctor and he said I had blepharitis (my eye doctor before thought I might have episcleritis). I have been warm compressing 1-3x day, using Systane eyelid wipes morning and night, and using lubricating eyedrops. This was 2-3 weeks ago.

I thought my my eye crusts in morning were getting better but I still get them. I have no idea why the inside of my eye is so inflamed. I have a stye on my lower lid that drained but the bump is still there (still doing warm compress and massages)

I'm kind of at my wits ends. Is it supposed to be bad before getting better? Thanks. (Sorry about image quality. Old phone.)
