People doing more DIY during the coronavirus lockdown has led to an increase in serious eye injuries, a hospital has said.
Oxford Eye Hospital said it had seen an increase in injuries and people who needed operations.
The hospital saw six "traumatised eyes" in a week, but would usually see one no more than every two to three weeks.
Consultant Stella Hornby said she thought the rise was due to people doing DIY jobs without eye protection.
The trust's clinical lead for Ophthalmology said: "We're seeing patients with more serious eye injuries and people have needed operations to repair injuries and which could potentially result in sight loss."

Our government were advised by experts that this would kill between 40,000 and 200,000. They decided that was ok for us to develop herd immunity.
They decided it was acceptable losses until the point when the public decided otherwise.
It was a political decision based on the science. One that we all now have to live with.
Johnson hasn't led from the front, him and his dad both thought this wouldn't affect them. One ignored the restrictions and got infected, the other was telling the world nothing was going to stop him going to the pub and pissing off to his second home in Cornwall.

It's like watching two sly old foxes (me & him) trying to outwit one another
I knew what he was up to, but when I saw his post, it had to be done
Yup ... and why do they need to give separate figures for those that die 'in hospital' ... don't understand it
So the latest research shows 42-57% of deaths occur in care homes.
May as well just double the numbers we are given so we can compare ourselves to France.
