Last week a good friend of mine was severely injured when a spring broke on a disappearing staircase he was working on at his home. The spring flew back and hit him directly in his left eye. The local hospital sent him to Duke Medical Center here in NC (a nationally known eye center). The doctors could not find the lens of his eye and it is 50/50 whether they will be able to save his sight in that eye. Being the head of Maintenance and engineering at the hospital we work at, he always stressed safety to his maintenance guys, but like we all do, never thought something like this could happen to him at home.In just a second, his life was changed forever. Please..... when you are grinding,using any type of impact instrument, yard equipment or any chemicals ...please wear eye protection. I saw him a few days after the accident. I had to go to Lowes later that morning to get some lumber for a honey-do and I went by the tool department and got a pair of safety goggles. I will be using them from now on.
