This is a perfect example of why old people need to be shot.
Glue is a hell of a lot thicker than eyedrops. I mean get a clue already.

Did the lashes stay on?

On another grim note, I've seen people who've pried out all their eyelashes.

:retard:

Yeah, they had problems.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

Ouch, I felt that...

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

That wasn't funny at all. Neo, if you're trying to be very funny again... sorry, it didn't work. :(

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

lol...poor granny :p

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

heh, it's not when old people put glue in their eyes that i worry about, it's when they are driving at you like a crazy maniac and killing innocent people cause they are too old to see what's going on....

old people dont need to be shot, they should just not be allowed to drive after 65.

Ouch...I'd be afraid that'd damage my vision.

Superglue should always be kept under the sink in the tool drawer.

my former boss's wife a couple years ago did the EXACT same thing. put superglue in her eye instead of eyedrops. she was in her mid 30's too. her eye was goofed up for a while, she just did the laser eye sergury last year to fix em.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

Agreed. I could perfectly see my grandma doing something like that, and its not a funny thought.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

That would suck.

In retrospect, It would make one helluva story to tell people.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

A girl I know did that, except I think she used Nail Polish remover or something.

Personally, that is one reason I would stick to glasses if I had an eyesight problem. I don't trust contacts.

Hehehe...I found it mildly funny. I enjoy laughing at other people's expense. Besides, she's fine.

A few years ago, my dad, who was in his late 30's, accidently put this stuff called "Swimmers Ear" in his eye. It's stuff you use to dry the water out of your ears after you swim.

The bottle looked exactly the same as the eye drop bottle almost, and the drops are the same color and consistancy. It didn't feel too good though. :D The Swimmer's ear has alcohol and such in it.

I'm just glad everything is fine in the end...

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

The thing I'm wondering about is why the hell would her eyedrops and sugerglue be in the same place? Yes, we all keep a bottle of glue in our medicine cabinets.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

maybe it's just me...but why would you put eyedrops and superglue in your FRIDGE?!

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

In case you have to glue a solder joint, duh.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

You're joking right?

You do realize that males between the ages of 16 and 25 are the biggest cause of accidents BY FAR.

I'm not saying that there aren't a lot of old people driving that shouldn't be, but to say that people over 65 shouldn't be driving is just ignorant. Unless you were trying to be funny. :-o

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

I don't know about superglue. But I do know that certain medicines are supposed to be kept refrigerated, and the article did say that the eyedrops were prescription eyedrops.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

well...the point is that the superglue was in the fridge!

Seth, your signature is 1,5 MB big. :wtf:

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

Wouldn't the superglue have frozen, therefore making it impossiblee to get out of the tube?

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

Should be stored between about 40°F and 86°F.

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

My housemate puts her superglue in the freezer... Apparently it lasts longer...

?

Re: Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops
 

I know how the old lady feels.... When I was 5 or 6 my sister glued my eyes shut with elmers glue. It kinda sucks.
