I had a little mishap on the job. I will not talk about what happened in more detail than I provide here. Someone thought I'd look better with one eye and poked me in the right eye with a sharp implement. It was a glancing blow. He'll be doing all his poking in the pokey for a good while. There was a fair amount of damage to the sclera. Vision was not effected other than by swollen eyelids. I needed a few grafts to have the damage repaired. Donor cornea from a hapless corpse and some scleral tissue from my other eye was used to cover the debrided scleral tissue that was destroyed. It was a two-hour surgery. Got poked 6 days ago, had surgery 5 days ago. First picture right after getting poked before the eye was completely swollen shut. Second picture shows donor site, left eye, yesterday. The very white looking area is where scleral tissue was harvested. The third image is also from yesterday and shows mostly the repaired area, which looks all pinkish and gnarly. You can see the white scleral tissue I donated to myself directly next to my iris in vertical orientation. A couple millimeters more towards the cornea and I'd be retired now. I'm not allowed to go surfing for a month. Otherwise I'd already be in Costa Rica.
