Hey Max!
 

BB reminded me that you're an eye Dr. How about a freebie?
Last Friday a piece of rust hit my eye, even though I was
wearing safety glasses. I believe it bounced out right away,
but the next day it was all red and very, very sore.
Couldn't see anything in there, but stilI washed it out
several times. In the morning my eyelid was stuck closed,
till I washed it. It got better by Monday, so I didn't see
our Doc. it's fine now.
My Q is, could that have gotten like that even if the piece
of rust didn't stay in. Bruised eye?

Nope. You had a foreign body lodged in your cornea, at least until you
washed it out or it just fell out by itself. Glad it's gone--rust , or
rusting ferrous metal, can wreak havoc with a cornea. Next time go get it
removed in a timely fashion.

Um, Scotty. He is a contact lens sales associate. You need an ophthalmologist.

At all of the Vitreo-Retinal consultants offices I have been to over the
eyars, it is the optometrist who does the work regarding corneal
abrasions and debris removal under the slit lamp...Max is fully
qualified to ggive his opinion, and for that matter, to do that
procedure...it is not something, though, that you go to D.O.C. or
Lenscrafter's for...

He should also wear safety goggle as opposed to safety glasses. Also a
full face shield come in handy too using any wheeled tool. I had a
metal shaving cut a nice little ditch in my eye just to the side of
the cornea, did not hurt at all, but the little ditch is still there.
Had it been on the cornea then I suspect it would have messed up part
of my vision big time.

Can happen, it has to me twice in 30+ years. Both times no real damage. A
riccochet off the cheek bone, bounce off the *inside* of the glasses, and into
the eye.

These days for serious grinding I wear a full face shield and the protective
glasses over my prescription glasses. The full face shield cuts down those low

Nope. You had a foreign body lodged in your cornea, at least until you
washed it out or it just fell out by itself. Glad it's gone--rust , or
rusting ferrous metal, can wreak havoc with a cornea. Next time go get
it
removed in a timely fashion.

Most people luck out on such injuries, as you did. It takes a substantial
injury to cornea in the region of the optic axis to damage vision. And
you're right about goggles--if working in hazardous conditions, glasses
won't be of much help.

I remove 10 to 15 embedded corneal foreign objects, generally metallic, per
month. And I'm only one of many practioners in our area. I've seen OSHA
figures annually, and ocular foreign bodies are always near the top, if not
number one.

Hey Max,

While we're talking eyes, I went in for my eyes just about a year late
due to PC Dr changes due to retirement. Got a clean bill of health. The
plastic transplants are still giving 20/20 and the prism on the bifocals
is still the same.

The reason for this 'Post" is Sun Glasses. When I sold the boat, both
pair of those Funky fit over regular glasses went with the boat. I
replaced them this week and all's well with the world again. I noticed
they put windows in the side shields.

Still the best Damn Sun Glasses I've ever owned.

Price went up. From $12.00 to $14.00

Hey Max,

While we're talking eyes, I went in for my eyes just about a year late
due to PC Dr changes due to retirement. Got a clean bill of health. The
plastic transplants are still giving 20/20 and the prism on the bifocals
is still the same.


Hey Thom, what did you have done?
I'm considering a refractive lens replacement to regain near sight and
toss the reading glasses.

Which accommodative implant system are you considering? (trade name,
preferably) Have you been informed that the success rate is a bit closer to
50% than what some "enterprising" surgeons are claiming?

Thanks for your interest Max,

The surgeon here is
http://www.southline.com.au/procedures.asp?ID=431
He's operated on a number of friends and family over the years and all
reports have been 100% positive.

Very happy to hear any input as none have had the RLE procedure.
I've had the prelim checks and apparently am "a perfect candidate" for
the surgery requiring only -0.5 for long sight and +1.5 near with
perfectly healthy eyes.

Please keep us posted as to your outcome. Best of luck.

Max

Hey Max!
 

Not all that other stuff, but got to go with Joe on the
eye
protection. In my industrial life the number one, by far,
OSHA
recordable incident was "foreign body in the eye".


Back injuries.
Eyes come in a close second, and much much harder to fake too.

Yes, I like both my eyes. I was wearing glasses, w/ side
shields. I was on my back, the piece bounced up in somehow.

Happens fairly often, fortunately those chips & splinters lose a lot
of energy bouncing around before they hit your eye.

PDW wrote:
Can happen, it has to me twice in 30+ years. Both times no real damage. A
riccochet off the cheek bone, bounce off the *inside* of the glasses, and into
the eye.

These days for serious grinding I wear a full face shield and the protective
glasses over my prescription glasses. The full face shield cuts down those low
angle bounces off the face.


Problem is that after about 5 minutes you can't see thru all the
safety clutter (or at least I can't). Then safety becomes a matter of
patience to clear things up. The most important piece of safety gear
is right between the operator's ears.

Yeah, and we all know how reliable that is.
