The first step is to test and see if your eye(s) are in face damp or just moist. Luckily this test is very easy.

1. Blink your eyes rapidly 7 times.
2. If nothing happens then it is likely that your eyes are just in the moist category and you have no need to worry.
2. If a droplet of water excretes from the corner of your eye closest to the top of your nose then you may have damp eyes.
3. Blink another 20 times and the 2 more times for every year of your total time on this Earth. For example, if you are 37 you will need to rapidly blink for 20 blinks, then an additional 74 times.
4. Take a small paper towel, lay it flat on a stable surface and carefully lean your face over it. Using your index and little finger clamped together grab your eyelashes one by one and squeeze.
5. If water droplets are wrung out from your eyelashes then you do indeed have damp eyes. If not then you do not.

So I have damp eyes, what next?

Make sure you have not been crying within the last 32 minutes. If you have not then it’s time to do some drying. This will require donning your running shoes and taking to the hills. It’s important that your run for at least 1068meteres both and and down hills keeping your eyes open for as long as comfortably possible during the cure.

That should do it… Your eyes are likely to return to moist status.

If this does not cure them then it is possibly that you are suffering from another condition and it is advised that you visit your doctor.

The term was originally coined to describe the popular road-division device ‘the cats eye’, but soon spread to mean just about anything found on the road.

There is barely a motel worker in the world who has not heard the distant cry of “DAMP CATS” on a dark, wet night, indicating that someone’s jacket has been left on the road and is getting wet. Or signifying some freshly laid concrete is flooding and may require drying by hand.
