Eye, Eye, Eye
Whoops:
Irmgard Holm had cataract surgery last year. She mistakenly reached for what she thought was one of her half dozen eye drop medications -- but the burning sensation that followed let her know something was seriously wrong.
It was superglue.
"The bottles are identical and I am not young anymore, but I am not senile," Holm said.
She tried washing the adhesive out, but the quick-drying glue did its job
and sealed her eye shut.
Paramedics and hospital staff had to get it open and wash out her eye before major damage was done.
