The worst headache I ever had was from having a sliver of metal removed from my eye. I was wearing my safety glasses and grinding on an old grill guard. I felt it hit my eye and thought I had gotten it out. The next day it was still bothering me so I went to the eye doctor. Sure enough, it was a sliver of metal. He used this wierd contraption that was like a big fat pencil with a sharp needle sticking out the end and dug it out of my eye. He said it went through the third layer of my cornea and was very close to my pupil. I had to wear a medicated contact for a day or two after that and I had the worst headache for a while that I have ever had. I have some scar tissue in my eye from that incident. For the longest time, my vision would be slightly blurred in that eye when I was in dimly lit areas. I think this is because the pupil would dialate and the scar tissue would show up in my vision. It isn't bad now. However, I have had my eyes examined a few times since, and every eye Dr. said that they can see the scar tissue in that eye. Even though I was wearing my safety glasses at the time, I now wear a face shield as well as the safety glasses together. I don't want to have to go through that again. :drunk:Sean's said:That is funny ? I use the Magnet on the end of my Points Ignition screw driver . << worked few times .

This is what I wear at work. Harley Davidson safety glasses. What I like about them is that they wrap around the sides somewhat. And they are stylish. A little more costly at $14.00 a pair but they are comfortable and stylish. So if you have to wear them at work, get something that you like and fits well.Safety glasses aren't as stupid looking as they were back in high school machine shop class.
