    I'd wear glasses whenever possible, fishing, frying bacon, you name it, you never know when a freak accident might happen.

    I once took a large hook in the bicep. I could not get it to pull out, so I had to push the hook through the other side, clip the barb, then back it out. Sucked, but at least it wasn't my eye.

    Polarized glasses are awesome. Not only do they keep that crap from happening, but you can see into the water better, too. I hooked my buddies hat one time. It was dark and we were on a tiny boat. Luckily that's all it was...his hat.

    Yah, that'll finish the eye real quick. I had a kid the other day come in cause she got shot by her sister with a bb gun.. Her eye is done. Another just didnt take his contact lens out for A FULL MONTH STRAIGHT.. after we told him the infection was too bad to save his eye (he actually laughed...?)
