<![CDATA[metal in my eye]]>Well, last night I was doing some grinding (and I had safety glasses on). Once I got done I called it a night and went inside. I have horrible allergies so my eyes are always watering/itching/etc... so I rubbed them. Now today I got to go to the hospital and get 3 chunks of metal removed from my left eye. There is still a bunch in there but it is too deep to remove w/o surgery so they gave me some ointment that is supposed to bring it to the surface. I go back in on wednesday to get the rest removed, if it isn't removeable still then i get to get my eye cut open. this kinda sucks. 🙂 (sorry for spelling errors, this wass typed in the blind)

I'm sorry to hear about this and hope you get better.

The other tech that I work with got metal in his eye last week.

I had to get metal cut from my eye, it is no fun at all thats for sure. They had to give me a shot in my eye, and just watching the needle come towards your eye just make cringe and ahhhhhhhhh its no fun.
