Working out the other night I was using some resistance bands. Arthritis in my hands makes it very difficult to do pull ups. I had a short resistance band with two handles thrown over a pull up bar and I was simulating pull ups with this band. Pulling the handles down to my waist and then back up. Pretty much a revers curl. As I was pulling down I was looking where the band was looping over the pull up bar. I was thinking this seems like a bad idea if that snaps I am gonna be in troub......... thats when it snapped and blasted my left eye.
Hurt like a mother and I lost the superior half of my left eye vision. I was worried about all sorts of stuff including a retinal detachment. I saw two doctors and was told I have bleeding and swelling in the retina. When I first get up in the morning I have a shadow in superior vision which does improve as day goes on. I am told this will improve when blood and bruising go away.
Stay away from those exercise bands. Dangerous stuff. I was really frightened I lost an eye and I feel lucky.
* I probably couldnt do 4 pullups even with out the arthritis.
