👀 This was the 2nd time this young man got metal in his left eye in the past month.
▪️Pain 7/10
▪️Light sensitivity
▪️Slightly blurred vision
▪️Watering
✅He reported that he was wearing safety glasses without side shields both times. I did not treat him the first time.
🏥This time, he went to the emergency room 1st. They couldn’t help him, so they sent him to me.
🧐After checking his vision, I gave him an anesthetic to numb the pain. When I examined him with the microscope, I discovered that the metal was gone.
The brown rust ring that you see is the evidence that it was once there.
🤔He saw a TikTok on how to remove metal from the eye with a magnet & apparently it worked…
‼️I Rx’d an antibiotic and made him promise to get better safety glasses!
⚠️If you are working in any environment with materials that could potentially get into your eyes, please invest in safety glasses/protective eyewear with side shields and use them!!! PLEASE!
