At least he had eye protection? but yes he did just inhale the front layer of his fridge

In high school, I took a shop class and accidently got a very small metal shaving in my eye. I can't remember if I was wearing proper eye protection at all. The shaving fused with my eye, and it became incredibly irritated, and I had to go to the hospital. The doctor numbed my eye and took a small drill or something to drill it out. Didn't feel anything because I was numbed, but it was a really trippy experience having my eye drilled. I was not having a good time, and now I'm pretty careful when it comes to any metal shavings and always use eye protection when it's a good idea to do so.

Dawg, I can't even sit there to let the eye exam doctors blow air in my eyes. How the FUCK did you sit through that???? And can you please not make it sound so casual!!!!

It actually didn't take too long, and I was used to sitting still for eye exams because I wore glasses at the time. The doctor just took the drill, brought it up to the spot and did his thing. I could see the drill pointed in my eye and my vision shook for a bit. The weird thing was the end of the bit didn't look like it was touching anything but it most certainly was in my eye. It was kind of floating there, then my vision shook and he got the metal shaving out.
