Fireworks and Eye Injuries - Jeff's Story - Nebraska Medicine

Five years ago, Jeff Smith suffered an eye injury on the Fourth of July. He wasn't wearing protective glasses and didn't have water around. His eyelid had melted to his eyeball. Jeff was referred to the Truhlsen Eye Institute. There, Dr. James Gigantelli detached Jeff's eyelid in order to fix it. As a result, Jeff never lost his vision.
