Olivia Attwood took to her Instagram stories on Friday to update her fans after a medical emergency forced her to miss the Loose Women Christmas party.
The Love Island star, 32, showed off her swollen eye to her 2.1 million followers after previously showing herself bandaged up.
Olivia revealed that while she is now feeling ‘fine’, she’d had a cyst underneath her eyelid and needed an operation to remove it.
She added that she had a video of the process but thought it was ‘too graphic’ to post online and could make her fans ‘vomit’.
Zooming in on her bruised eyelid she said: ‘So the patch is off and everything’s fine.

‘Thank you for all your messages, I know I look very dramatic – essentially I had a little cyst on the inside of my eyelid.
‘Basically they flipped my eyelid inside out and cut it off.’
On Wednesday the TV personality, who joined the ITV panel earlier this year, looked glum as she wore her black framed reading glasses over the eye patch.
She did not initially reveal exactly what was wrong but wrote: ‘Was meant to be off to @loosewomen Christmas lunch… but my eye had other ideas’.
It comes after Olivia revealed she is clashing with her husband Bradley Dack over when they want to start a family.
The reality star, who married footballer Bradley, 29, earlier this year, appeared on Loose Women last week where the panel discussed Sienna Miller’s pregnancy at 41 and if there was judgement surrounding women who are pregnant later in life.
The television personality revealed Bradley is desperate to be a father, but she isn’t ready yet.
Olivia said: ‘I’m sitting here listening to you girls talking and I’m thinking I’m going to be a geriatric mother, as they call it.’

Charlene White asked her if she wanted to have children in the near future, to which she replied: ‘No. I mean, never say never, you know, and all that stuff.
‘I’m obviously married and very happy and Brad would love to have one, you know, tomorrow.
‘But I’m, right now, other things excite me. I don’t have that maternal instinct yet. The way it is going, I probably will be around that 35 age. Which is mad to hear that’s when they call if geriatric.’
Jane Moore asked Olivia if she saw a future with no children.
Olivia said: ‘I don’t see that being the case but I also wouldn’t say that’s never going to happen. I’m very open to which ever way it goes.’
