+1 your symptoms were not from 'venom' but rather, a panic attack/adrenaline rush.

Don't worry mate the eye is one of the fastest healing organs next to skin and the tongue (I know that's a muscle). Just clean it like you would with some road rash but be mindful of the eye and everything should be clears up by next month.

yea i meant its starting her mating season, technicaly its my roomates python, i dont know as much about her, but i have been trying to learn
Lets try not to spread crazy falsehoods there are enough silly notions floating around no need to add to it. You are describing shock.

Never try to beat a snake in a staring contest, they will always win.

Yes, Ball Pythons do NOT have venom. The worst thing that can come from a bite from them is an infection. The adrenaline rush (even if you don't perceive it as a scary or exciting thing, any surprise makes your body generate adrenaline to prepare you for the "fight or flight" choice naturally) would probably be what gave you the light-headedness afterwards.
