Re: Wear safety glasses!

the rust rings will actually start within 5 min.
I had the same thing happen, hit dead center on my left eye... this was in summer of 2000, and I still have scars on my eye and degraded vison. I also waited 24 hrs... we were in a sand storm and you kinda expect to get stuff in your eye. Everything was fine till the 2nd loutenant scratched the hell out of my eye getting the fragment out. They used a small air drill with a buffer wheel on it for my eye.
I still get wigged out thinking about it 10 years later.
