"It's corneal abrasion. It's so painful... like burns. Any tips. Sunglasses help slightly."

Just before heading to bed Sam updated her followers with how she was feeling.

The mum-of-three said: "Guys thank you soo much for your messages.

"I can't believe how many of you have experience this too.

"I thought am I being over the top? But it's been soo painful all day.

"Finally getting into bed & hoping when I wake up it's eased off.

"I got drops, and I sprayed colloidal silver on them & rubbed some caster oil on too."

According to the Oxford Health NHS Foundation, corneal abrasion is a "small wound on the clear covering of your eye".

It usually takes up to 72 hours to heal.

Sam welcomed baby Edward into the world in May 2022.
