i was putting some screws into a metal house i am erecting for my father. i am attempting to get it done, prior to his succumbing to diabetes/congestive heart failure. while his death is not imminent,, it is well within the possibility it could occur at any time.
i have three friends helping, and we work 80 hours a week.
i hit my left eyebrow with a screw, at first, and several minutes later i put the dewalt model 269 with a 5/16" bit into my face and eyesocket.
it temporaririly blinded me (about an hour) and my buddy swears he saw eye fluid. i had him drive me to the hospital and after several hours i hd to undergo surgery.
i have a hole in my retina that is believed to be either "normal" wear or from an earlier injury.
so far, no loss in vision!!!
i cannot pick anything up for a few weeks.
