Yeah, I have not been in a situation for this to happen but I saw this today and wanted to remind everyone to not f-around about safety. It would suck to no longer have an eye because you were careless.

eyebuydirect has fairly affordable prescription safety glasses as long as you have your prescription on hand.

I cracked my cornea from an impact of a rotary tools blade disintegrating. Filled the inside of my pupil with blood. Was almost blinded permanently by the pressure of the blood pushing on my optic nerve. My eye was white but my pupil was red. I was forced on bedrest for three weeks as moving my eye could repopen the bleeding and I'd have to go into surgery. Thankfully it never broke again. There are safety glasses everywhere in my house now.

Thanks for the reminder, unfortunately I'm in the habit of not protecting myself...

I got prescription safety glasses this time around. I've had an incident WITH safety glasses on. You only get one set of eyes.

Blue screen glasses at home when browsing, and then leave them on because I forget that I wear them (it's weird to get used to life in orange). I have a pair of safety lens at work; they are stylish but a bit tight. Protect your balls, and your eyeballs.
