Reply #68: While on the subject of kitty claws and eyes...

[Contrary1]

A couple of years ago, my left eye felt like something was in it. I figured it would resolve itself. It didn't. After a couple days, I called my ophthalmologist, and he saw me right away.

Evidently, the last time I had clipped my cats' claws, a tiny nail fragment flew into my eye. I never felt a thing, until it got lodged under my eyelid. It had scratched the cornea.

So be careful. Them kitties are dangerous, I tell ya. :)
