Ouch.  Not a place you'll want him to have a scar, so make sure that if it
needs to be properly closed, you get that done in a timely manner... but I'm
not sure what would be timely.  Got butterfly closures in the meantime?

Yipes -- peroxide in the eye?  I did that once by accident with contact
lenses and had blurry vision for a day or two.  Hurt like the dickens, so
much that it was hard to open my eye enough to get the lens out.  And it was
as I was getting ready for Heidi Roizen's wedding reception (Heidi of
T/Maker and Apple), so I was the squinty guy who seemed to be  half-crying
the whole time.  I'm guessing it wasn't quite so back for Sammy?

There, a prayer for all of you...
