KSAZ-TV says Irmgard Holm of Glendale had cataract surgery a
year ago. She was reaching for what she thought was one of her half-dozen eye
drop medications. The burning sensation told her immediately something was
seriously wrong.
Holm says the eye drops and the super glue bottles are
nearly identical.
After putting super glue in her eye, Holm says she tried
washing it out. But the quick-drying substance did what it was supposed to and
sealed her eye shut.
Holm got to the hospital and staff cut off the hardened glue
covering her eye. Once the eye was opened, doctors washed it out to prevent
major damage, KSAZ-TV reported.
