I used to work in a metal shop. One day riding my bike home from work, I thought a bug or something flew into my eye. I pulled my eyelid, rubbe my eye and thought it was gone. Later that night, it felt like something was still in my eye. I looked in the mirror. Nice little piece of metal (and I was working on the grinder that day, grinding off burrs). I tried to swab it out with a qtip, but that just left cotton on the metal. Now it was starting to hurt. Seeing the doctor pull that out (went to two doctors, actually) was freaky. It took about 9 months to fully heal (I wasn't using the eyedrops as much as I should have). Anyway, it was really painful, but at first it just felt like "an eyelash fell in". -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
