I got shot at work. Through a glass door.had glass embedded in my face, bullet grazed my eyebrow, and had 2 pieces of glass in my right eye. Had surgery to remove the glass, and repair what damage they could. The lens was badly damaged, and was removed. The Dr also says that I have Iris loss between 7 and 8. What does this mean?
