What an idiot I am!

Postby Val G » Thu 22 Jun 2006 8:49 pm

Went flying into work this morning,rushing as usual, popped my one lens in at the mirror and.......
........immediately realised that I had put it into my grafted eye by mistake!!!
I popped it straight back out, within a split second, but in such a panic it went flying on the floor. I did find it eventually, I was so relieved, it would have been a 2 hour round trip to home and back to get my newly purchased spare lens.
I'm sure I won't have done any damage (7months post graft),but I did give myself a shock. What a plonker, eh?

Oops! It can be easy to forget which eye has been grafted after a while can't it :lol:

Still, I'm glad that you managed to find the lens again.

KC is about facing the challenges it creates rather than accepting the problems it generates -
