According to TMZ, an eyewitness said that the person accidentally misjudged his reach and ended up poking Lawrence in the eye. He was immediately taken to the hospital and is expected to be back to work Friday night.

There is a significant difference between being stabbed and being hit.

Also a difference between being STABBED and being accidently POKED. If I get a knife and POKE you, it will irritate...if I get a knife and STAB you, well..there IS a difference...maybe the writer of the article should learn the difference?

its all knockoffs,junk,fake,beware dont buy this crap!
junk,knockoffs,beware dont buy this junk,stay away.
I agree with the others..does every headline have to be "eye-catching" even to the point of lying and misdirection? the guy had a corneal tear, happens every day, usually heals well with some antibiotic drops and eye patch and in this case was totally innocent..is this newsworthy? ask people starving to death around the world or drowning in devastating floods. Really? Popeater?

Lol, I should not have laughed at that.
I remember Joey and his little brother in a horror/scifi movie called Pulse that came out when they were kids. Good flick.
