pulled a good stunt today, decided to clear the drain in my shower, put a couple of tablespoons of drain cleaner in it with a cup of water and let sit for 10 mins before running water down it. In the interim I noticed some mould inside the drain, so decided to get a bottle brush and remove it. Unfortunately a tint bit of the draino must have been embedded in the mould and next thing I knew I felt like a knife had gone into my eye. Instantly flushed copious quantities of water into the eye. Spent the remainder of the afternoon at my eye specialist irrigating the eye after a full on optical inspection. Should all be ok, but at present it is hurting like hell, tearing up and feels like a beach is under my eyelids. Apparently this stuff is worse than acid to get into your eye, the nurse that worked on me said she has had a lot of people with similar issues, in particular tradies that had let their guard down, when cleaning drains etc, not a pleasant experience. Next time I will have safety glasses on. My normal glasses did not protect enough in this case.
