FORMER DIRECTOR OF S.H.I.E.L.D.

So anyway, yesterday my eye started really bugging me. Extreme light sensitivity and such. A while ago while training (this was actually in KL) I took a shot to my left eye and since then it's been giving me problems whenever I rub it accidentally. It's been a decidedly minor irritation for me until now and I finally decided to see a doctor about it.

Turns out I have some kind of corneal erosion. The cells that are trying to repair my eye don't get the chance to stick properly and get pulled off, causing the irritation. This wasn't helped by my pathological need to keep touching my eye. So, my wife had to step in. One quick trip to the pharmacy later and this is what I look like:



"I'd like to talk to you about the Avenger Initiative..."

On a completely unrelated, and much happier note, congratulations to my friend and BJJ-brother Rizan, on the birth of his daughter Sierra!

What the... o_O

Strange though - you seem to have picked up the exact same injury i got (except mine was from that paintball netting and they had to lop off some of the cornea).

Same thing though, my right eye is extremely sensitive because of the same reason. However, instead of an eyepatch for the initial period of corneal regrowth i had to make do with disposable lenses but my right eye is now permanently damaged and a little long sighted...

I did (and still do!) have the same eyepatch... er... 'fantasy' (is AWESOME) but here's another one i thought about and you might want to consider...



...a MONOCLE! ;)
