I had a metal sliver in my eye last summer...0.5mm away from maximum pupil dialation. If it was higher, vision woulda been screwed up seriously...so I know what its like for an eye injury.
I waited a day to have it removed (at the time I didnt know what it was) so there was a healthy rust ring around it and that had to be drilled out with this corkscrew lookin thing...not fun.
I did get to wear an eye patch for several days though...and I got liquid antibiotics and went in my eye and after a few minutes...I could taste (weird). Oh, and I painted a skull and cross bones on my patch ala pirates (if I remember I'll post the 1 pic of that)
