Narrative

While cleaning the clean air side of Silo 51 air slide, an employee found the slide choked and not flowing. EE used a short air lance to clear cement and restore flow. Cement blew back into EE's face, entering EE's right eye under EE's safety glasses. EE was sent to an eye doctor; no damage was found and antibiotic eye drops were prescribed. No lost time resulted. Returned to job.
