"The common warning that you'll 'put out an eye' if you're not
careful actually can be true, particularly during certain types of
work, home and sports activities," AllAboutVision.com editorial
director and writer Liz Segre said in one article on eye safety
basics. "Unlike other parts of the body that can heal after a serious
injury, your unprotected eye -- and your vision -- may never fully
recover from certain wounds."
