Good to read of your progress.

I too became a believer in eye protection when a former neighbor knocked on my door one morning and asked me to drive him to the ER. Sticking out of the corner of his eye was a short length of bright orange trimmer line. However he was not as fortunate as you as he lost the sight in the affected eye. He was a Viet Nam vet with massive scarring in his upper chest and arms from a mortar hit. He always told me how ironic it was for him not to lose his eye sight while in combat but to lose it while trimming the grass.
