## Narrative

EE was clearing material from a blocked chute. After removing wet material, the dry material behind it broke loose and slid down the chute causing some hydrated lime to pass underneath EE's safety glasses and into EE's left eye. After rinsing with eye wash and going to ER, EE was prescribed eye drops for scratch on left eye.
