Narrative

Employee was driving down the drift when a piece of warning flagging got under his glasses, abrading his eye. Employee got first aid treatment that day and then was given Rx eye drops a few days later from a 2nd HCP. Differing medical opinions make it unclear if this injury treatment was a result of the abrasion and whether or not it meets MSHA's recording criteria.
