Skye Wheatley has another procedure done on her eyes - following controversial fox eye surgery: 'They're horrible'
The influencer, 31, shared videos to Instagram explaining to her followers this time it was medically necessary to go under the knife.
Appearing in the clips with shocking bloodshot eyes, Skye said she had her pinguecula removed—a raised growth on the mucous membrane of the eye.
'I thought I would give an update on my eyeballs. They're horrible. It's really making me feel not my best, which is annoying,' she told her fans.
'I feel like they're going to be red for quite some time. I had my stitches out. The annoying thing is I'm just not seeing an improvement.'

Skye leaned in to the camera to show followers how irritated and bloodshot her eyes looked following the medical surgery.
'Nothing will make you feel worse and uglier than bloodshot eyes. This is going to be the situation for at least another two to three weeks,' she said.
She then assured followers: 'It's not a virus. I had pinguecula surgery. I had my pingueculae removed.'
According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, a pinguecula is a small, yellowish growth which appears on the conjunctiva of the eye.
It is a common and benign condition often caused by sun exposure and dry, dusty environments.
Pingueculae are usually only surgically removed if they become painful, affect how the patient blinks, or impair their vision.
It comes after Skye underwent a controversial fox eye lift surgery, among several other procedures, in Turkey last October.
Skye also had liposuction, a complimentary temporal lift, and a blepharoplasty.
A temporal lift is a fat transfer into the face to prevent the need for injectable dermal fillers, and a blepharoplasty is an eyelid surgery.
'My doctor said there wasn't much fat on my arms or legs so [he] only took the littlest bit and from what I can see of my arms so far I'm really happy,' Skye said.
'Legs don't look much different, probably swollen.'
Answering a question on her Instagram Stories, Skye listed off all the plastic surgery procedures she's ever had done.
She mentioned surgery on her nose, her breasts (twice), arms, inner thigh, and face.
The influencer previously revealed she couldn't open her eyes for three days following the fox eye lift procedure.
'Being in a foreign hospital with no eyesight was pretty unsettling,' she said.
'Why did you get the liposuction if you're really fit?' another follower asked Skye.
'Because [it] doesn't matter how fit you are, you're always going to have stubborn areas of fat!' Skye wrote.
'I'm not actually that fit. Yes, I train daily, but my diet isn't perfect. I'm too much of a sweet tooth, I'm obsessed with sugar and food in general. I'm a big eater lol.
'He wasn't even going to do it, he said hardly any fat, but I insisted.'
Skye was also forced to address accusations of a plastic surgery addiction shortly after she announced she was travelling to Turkey for the procedures.
'Really not being a hater—but YOU'RE the exact reason girls have self-esteem issues,' one follower wrote to her.
'Everyone is going to have self-esteem issues,' Skye replied.
'I know it's sad because I see the beauty in others but somehow it's always different when you look at yourself...
'And I'm being open and honest about my surgeries because I DON'T want other girls who aren't enhanced to feel like they're not "good enough" or "not pretty enough".
'Everyone is beautiful with or without surgery, but I think the more damaging thing is to get all these enhancements done without being honest about it.
'There are so many girls online who've had surgical enhancements and say nothing. I won't be one of those people.'

‘No other explanation': children of slain Gaza doctor say he was deliberately targeted
The children of Dr Marwan al-Sultan, director of Gaza's Indonesian hospital and one of the territory's most senior doctors, said they believed their father was deliberately targeted in the Israeli airstrike that killed him on Wednesday. Sultan died when an Israeli missile was fired into the apartment block in Gaza City where he and his extended family were staying after their displacement from northern Gaza. His wife, daughter, sister and son-in-law were also killed in the attack. His surviving daughter Lobna said the airstrike specifically targeted the room her father was in. 'All the rooms were fine except for his, the missile hit it precisely,' she said. His son Ahmed said there was 'no other explanation' other than that his father was deliberately targeted by the Israeli military. He also added that the floors where his father and their extended family were staying were the only parts of the block hit in the airstrike. Photos and videos taken by local journalists and given to the Guardian, showed that the apartment block had been hit on the front side of the fourth and fifth floors, while the rest remained intact. 'Until the last minute of his life, he did not leave his job. He paid for this dedication with his life,' said Ahmed. 'I was there only 10 minutes before the airstrike and the scene I faced when I went back to the apartment after the attack is indescribable. I didn't know who had survived and who had died. Some people were only now shattered body parts. Most of those who died were women and children.' He said his father's death was not just a loss for the family but for the whole of Gaza. Sultan was an experienced cardiologist and a leading figure in Gaza's medical community. He was also one of only two remaining heart specialists in the territory, according to Healthcare Worker Watch (HWW), a Palestinian medical organisation. 'My father was loved by all people,' said Ahmed. 'He had been besieged at the Indonesian hospital and also at the Kamal Adwan hospital but he did not leave. For the first few months [of the war] we did not see him except a few hours of the day because he was always at the hospital.' His death means that all of the directors of the hospitals in northern Gaza have either been killed or detained by the Israeli military forces. The director of Kamal Adwan hospital, Dr Ahmed al-Kahlout, and his fellow acting director, Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, as well as Dr Ahmed Muhanna, the director of al-Awda hospital in northern Gaza, are all being held in an Israeli prison. In a statement, the IDF said: 'On Wednesday, the IDF struck a key terrorist from the Hamas terrorist organisation in the area of Gaza City. The claim that as a result of the strike uninvolved civilians were harmed is being reviewed. 'The IDF regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and operates to mitigate harm to them as much as possible. The Hamas terrorist organisation systematically violates international law while using civilian infrastructure for terrorist activity and the civilian population as human shields. The incident is under review.' According to data from HWW, Sultan was the 70th healthcare worker to have been killed by the Israeli military in the past 50 days. The UN says that overall more than 1,400 healthcare workers have been killed in Gaza since the beginning of the war in October 2023. Under the Geneva conventions, the set of international laws that police the conduct of warring parties, attacks on healthcare workers during conflict could be war crimes. The conventions state that doctors and other healthcare professionals should be protected, not targeted or attacked during conflict, and must be allowed to carry on providing medical care to those who need it.

Full scale of Joshua Brown's alleged sex offending is laid bare as new details emerge - as male workers are banned from changing nappies
The number of childcare centres in Victoria where alleged paedophile Joshua Brown was employed is set to grow in the following week. The 26-year-old has been charged with more than 70 child sex offences including the sexual penetration of a child and producing child abuse material. He is also charged with recklessly contaminate goods to cause alarm or anxiety, which is understood to refer to the alleged contamination of food with bodily fluids. It was revealed on Friday that there is a new, full list of times and places where Brown worked which is due to be released in the coming days, The Age reported. The latest blow comes as families were rocked on Tuesday by an urgent warning from the Victorian Department of Health and Victoria Police for parents of 1,200 children to have them tested for infectious diseases. It has since been suggested the advised tests were for gonorrhea and chlamydia. It was later suggested parents also have their children tested for syphilis. Brown's is accused of abusing eight children between the ages of two-months-old and five-years-old at the Creative Garden Early Learning Centre Point Cook, where he worked between October 2021 and February 2024. Authorities said the Melbourne childcare worker also worked at more than a dozen other centres across the city between 2017 and 2025. Affinity Education, the national childcare company which employed Brown in at least nine of its centres, provided The Age with a letter from chief executive Tim Hickey. 'The individual was employed as a permanent part-time educator in August 2024 for a newly built centre which opened in November,' he said. 'During that period, they worked or trained across other centres in the network or where the support was needed. 'While this is a common operational practice in the sector, we are now reviewing how these movements are managed through a stronger child safety lens.' Meanwhile provider Inspire Early Learning Journey sent a letter to parents on Friday announcing it had adjusted policies about what male staff would be allowed to do. Chief curriculum and quality officer Eleinna Anderson said they will not be changing nappies or carrying out 'toileting duties', the Herald Sun reported. She maintained they will still play a 'vital role' and help with activities, classroom preparation and cleaning. The provider's staff must refrain from unnecessary physical contact with children including kissing. If offering emotional supporter, they need the child's consent to hug them or hold their hands. The national provider Affinity Education addressed Brown's work at nine of their centres, explaining why he worked at multiple locations in a letter to parents (pictured) Daily Mail Australia exclusively revealed on Friday that at least 30 families have already approached a high-profile law firm in Victoria to seek compensation over the alleged actions of Brown while their children were under his care. Arnold Thomas and Becker Lawyers have confirmed they were contacted by a string of families about potential legal action. Some parents have already approached the media to discuss the horror their families have been through. A Werribee father who spoke out on Thursday, described how his seven-year-old daughter begged medical staff to stop as they administered an STI test. 'My daughter was saying "Daddy, this is really hurting me, make the lady stop",' he told the Herald Sun. 'You could visibly see the pathologist was upset, the receptionists were upset, the doctor was upset. Because they're all parents. It's affected everyone.' All the parents involved have to wait an unknown amount of time to discover whether their children have any STIs. 'It's every bit as bad as you think it's going to be. Every time my phone rings… I get anxiety, every time it rings. It's constantly attached to my hand as we're waiting for that phone call,' he said. Health authorities had to contact more than 2,600 families after Brown was taken into custody in mid-May, where he remains. His Point Cook home was raided by police shortly after an investigation was launched earlier that same month. Police have said he was not known to them before his arrest and he had a valid Working With Children Check, which has since been cancelled. He will next appear at Melbourne Magistrates' Court on September 15. Police discovered evidence of the alleged horrific offending by the childcare worker while investigating 36-year-old Michael Simon Wilson. Wilson, from Hoppers Crossing, was charged with 45 child sex offences on Wednesday, including bestiality, rape and possession of child abuse material, according to court documents. It is understood Brown and Wilson are known to each other, but Wilson's charges are not linked to any childcare centre and involve different alleged victims.

How Aussie man died from a rare virus MONTHS after he was bitten by a bat
New details have emerged about the tragic death of a New South Wales man who contracted the Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV). The northern NSW man, aged in his 50s, was bitten while trying to free a trapped bat in October 2024. He received initial treatment but developed symptoms months later and became critically ill, according to the Daily Telegraph. He died in hospital this week, becoming the first confirmed case of the virus in NSW, and the fourth in Australia. The other three cases also died, including an eight-year-old Queensland boy in 2013. Further investigation is underway to establish whether other exposures or factors contributed to the man's death. 'We express our sincere condolences to the man's family and friends for their tragic loss,' a NSW Health spokesperson said. The tragedy has prompted renewed warnings to avoid touching or handling bats. The deadly virus has no known cure. ABLV is closely related to the rabies virus and is typically transmitted through the bite or scratch of an infected animal. 'When a bat is injured or in distress, do not try to rescue it. Contact experts at your local wildlife rescue group, which has trained staff who can deal with bats safely,' NSW Health said. There is no effective treatment for ABLV or rabies once symptoms begin, making prevention through avoidance and post-exposure vaccination critically important. Large colonies of native bats are known to inhabit several areas across Sydney, including Centennial Park, Burnt Bridge Creek in Balgowlah, and Parramatta Park. Veterinarian Dr Alison Peel from the University of Sydney told The Daily Telegraph that the virus remains 'exceptionally rare,' found in 'less than 0.5 per cent of the total bat population.' Dr Peel explained that transmission to humans only occurs when 'a bat bites or scratches someone and transfers saliva into a wound.' Despite the low infection rate, she stressed the need for caution, telling people to assume that all bats carry the virus and to not touch them. The sentiment was echoed by NSW Health director Keira Glasgow. 'It is incredibly rare for the virus to transmit to humans, but once symptoms of lyssavirus start in people who are scratched or bitten by an infected bat, sadly there is no effective treatment,' she said on Wednesday. NSW Health advises that anyone bitten by a bat should immediately and thoroughly wash the wound with soap and water for at least 15 minutes. After cleaning, apply an antiseptic with antiviral properties, such as povidone-iodine (e.g., Betadine), iodine tincture, aqueous iodine solution, chlorhexidine, or alcohol containing at least 70 per cent ethanol. Finally, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible for proper wound care and to evaluate your risk of infection. NSW Health says anyone who sees a bat in distress, injured or trapped on the ground, do not try to rescue it should contact trained experts WIRES on 1300 094 737. .
