An SUV crashes into an operating room

“A sport utility vehicle rammed into the operating room toward the end of a cataract procedure.

No one was injured, but Dr. Bernard Spier said that if the accident had happened moments earlier, it could have hurt the patient’s eye.

Spier had removed the cataract and had just used a plunger to implant a silicone lens when the crash threw him onto the partially sedated patient.”
