Today, I was clipping my abnormally thick toenails. I had to apply so much pressure on the clippers that a nail flew off, hit me in the eyeball and scratched my cornea. The doctor nearly fell off his chair laughing during my eye exam after I told him what happened. FML

omg you need safety goggles

Thats why you place the clipper in right possition, CLOSE YOUR EYES! and only then press! Easy and saves a lot!

I'd fall of my chair aswell

I swear to god this has also happened to me too, except my toenail was not that thick and luckily it did not damage my eye and it just went where annoying fallen eye lashes go.

So then it's not the same at all.

I spit up my milk while reading this...

This is something straight out of a Looney Tunes cartoon!

Close your eyes next time xD

If you close your eyes and the nail is sharp enough, it could cut the skin and the dirt on the nail could infect it : / happened to a family member
