The acute response struck her out of nowhere, almost immediately. Consequently, she was unable to attend Sunday’s Emmy Awards ceremony, where she was supposed to serve as one of almost 40 presenters.
On September 15, at 12:37 PM, Vergara took to social media to share her experience with fans. In response, she shared a video to social media of herself flushing out her right eye with water. The urgency of her situation was hard to deny. In the caption on her TikTok, she conveyed her frustration at missing the Emmy Awards while keeping it playful.

Despite the controversy, the 77th Emmy Awards on Sunday still promised to be a celebration of excellence on the small screen, punctuated by an A-list roster of stars. Many felt the lack of Vergara’s presence who had wanted to see her perform on the stage. Given her previous appearance at the boxing match, this only contributed to the excitement about her possible attendance at the awards.
