Narrative

EE was walking around where some other EEs were chipping slag from welds. A piece of slag came up under his safety glasses and got in his eye. EE thought he got it out. Bothered EE over weekend and went to doctor on Monday. Doctor removed debris and prescibed antibiotic drops, thereby making the accident reportable on 6/21/2010.
