| Hi! i got in a small accident. nothing even happened to the car, it has no dents at all. it was a crash at low speed the airbags got activated anyways which would be ok if the following didnt occur. i had my seat belt on. my friend was driving my car and i was in the passenger side. all i recall is the airbag releasing and soon after having intensive bleeding all around my face. i was taken immediatly to a hospital and had to get 8 stiches in my eyelid of my left eye. also i got several scars in my cheeks and foreheads. the airbag seemed to have burned right threw my skin, also tearing my eye lid area. i have lost 5 vision in my left eye. and have a cut in my cornea, and retina. i use to have 20/20 vision and now have 15/20. i also have several scars till todays date which are noticible. my eye doctor told me my left eye pupil will remain large most certainly for the rest of my life. there for i have a normal pupil and a large one which was caused by the accident. the airbag damaged my face very much. i am a 19 year old teen with permanent wounds because of the force of an airbag which wasnt even necessary for it wasnt a big crash. nothing happened to neither car. everything just happened to me. *ak | |||
