After a few more tries, the screen exploded. She said she felt some debris shooting into her eyes. "I couldn't open my eyes," she recalled. Her colleagues rushed her to the hospital where the doctor found her eyeball red and inflamed, and identified a scratch mark which suggested an object had scratched it.
