Been practicing my welding, had all the gear, mask, gloves etc. After a couple of days my left eye was bloodshot and very sore. Couldn't watch the tv even without sunglasses on. Went to the doc who said got to A & E, luckily we have an eye hospital local which have an A & E for eyes. Anyway they looked in and found a couple of metal fragments. Have you been doing any metal work ie grinding they said and I admitted yes, then got a telling off by a nice nurse for not wearing eye protection. Am now on antibiotics, eye drops every 2 hrs and cream in the eye before bed for 3 days then back to see if all is getting better. I have never been one for all this health and safety rubbish but have now gone and got some eye protection for 2.99p. Guys dont let it happen to you. It's bloody sore. Cheers Mick
