Granny mistakes superglue for eyedrops

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.

The Swimmer's ear has alcohol and such in it.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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