Always wearing glasses from now on

[jrm1493]

I just got back from the range. The ground was pretty soggy and I hit a wedge fat and dirt flew up into my eye pretty hard. I think I got pretty lucky, was able to get it out and flush my eye. I was also wearing contacts but the dirt hit next to the colored part of my eye so they were not impacted and I was able to remove the contact with no issue.

I have minimal pain but I do have a nice red spot just to the right of the colored part of my eye, where the dirt was. I called my eye doctor and they said that it was probably fine since there is no pain but if it starts hurting to come in. I think from now on I'm going to be like David Duval and just wear sunglasses all the time, it was pretty scary.

DO they make steel toed golf shoes in case my foot gets run over by the cart girl?

[Where's the Cart Girl?]

That's why I close my eyes.

That sir, is why you should never take your eyes off of the flag.

The helmet is good too in case you accidentally fall down.

I've never been able to wear glasses when I play. I wish I could I just can't do it.

Might just be something you need to get used to wearing. Most of the sport sun glasses you can't even tell you are wearing them because of the "wrap around" design. Being in AZ I can't walk outside w/ out shades on. Sunlight can be very damaging to the eyes.
