Super glue can be a godsend. Aside from putting a broken vase back together, people have used it to seal up minor cuts and temporarily fix cracked fingernails. For Katherine Gaydos, super glue became her worst nightmare when one of her eyes was accidentally glued shut with the liquid adhesive.
The incident occurred when debris from a nearby leaf blower flew into her eye, reports WPBF-TV (via ABC News.) Gaydos screamed for a friend to get eye drops out of her purse, but they instead brought super glue. “As soon as I felt it in my eye I felt it burn and I closed my eye and screamed ‘Call 911,’” Gaydos told WPBF-TV. Who was this “friend” who supposedly did not check the eye drops before squirting it into her eye? This poor woman.
