AB  - A  28-year-old  man  felt  something  fly  into  his  eye  while  he  was  using  a  table  saw  without  wearing  protective  eye  gear.  He  presented  with  pain,  tearing,  photophobia,  and  thought  that  something  was  still  in  his  eye.  On  examination  with  a  slit  lamp,  the  physician  noted  that  he  had  a  wood  chip  that  had  penetrated  the  cornea  (Figures  15-1  and  15-2).  He  was  referred  to  an  ophthalmologist  who  successfully  removed  the  foreign  body.  He  was  treated  with  a  short  course  of  topical  NSAIDs  for  pain  relief,  and  had  complete  healing.
