## Narrative

The ground person working at our wash plant, was walking past a conveyor and reported that EE felt something strike EE's eye, but that it didn't hurt and would have it looked at after work.  Later that afternoon EE was found by an ER Doctor to have a rock chip behind EE's eyeball and required surgery to remove it.  Unknown damage or impairment at this time.
