very good

i had "arc eye" once from tig welding, bugger that was painful, you takes your eyes for granted. You soon learn once you have almost lost ya sight, Glasses for ever since and about £500 a year to boot. Plaster and cement are murder too.

get well soon.AP

It's so easy to bash on with a little job and forget the hazards.
Hope you feel better soon.

What a winker!
GWS, Marty.

Crikey you look well rough in that picture mate. Has the bad eye aged you 20 years

My eye glasses have saved me numerous times from getting crap in my eyes but every now and again something gets around the lens and catches me. If I'm lucky I will blink just in time to catch it (fast reflexes!). Spray is the worst one that seems to get me, Carb spray, that stings There are times though when I think I should wear safety goggles. If not to save my eyes, but to save scratching the lens on my glasses.

(:-})

Ouch!
Sorry to hear that Marty. Get well soon bud and don't forget.

Too much winking can make you go blind!

A specialist ?...who a brickie ?

Still look on the bright side at least with blurred vision a blue Storm will look better...

Nah only joshing ya Marty...give it time the pain will ease & the blurriness will get, well less blurry.

Remember its not like a "willie" don't rub it! it will make it worse. get well soon and come down this way soon.

thanks for the support gents, the eyes slowly getting better, I can still feel the object when I blink and my vision is still blurry, but fingers crossed it'll sort itself out, otherwise it'll be a trip to moorfields....

yep, we are all guilty of not always wearing glasses and your thread title is top advice.

hope you get right asap mate

Fool of a took!

Sorry to hear it man, get well soon SP's are surely better to admire with both eyes

Just don't do what I have in the past, leave it in the hope it'll be aright after a nights sleep. If you have an eye injury get it looked at asap.

I hope your eye is getting better Marty.

Chris.

and don't do what a friend of ours did when they mistook the bottle of eye drops for the bottle of wart remover

all mended now chaps, after 4 days of eye drops and a gel, my eye problem disappeared, I still continued the treatment for 8 or 9 days.
and I agree, get it looked at asap....
