And it worked? Wow! Guess the Visine needs to be locked away behind the counter. Puts a new meaning to OTC drugs!

Saw this on wedding crashes and always wondered if it was true

Is this true? Because it kinda scares me now.

I've heard bartender stories about how they do this to cheap customers, people they don't like & perverts..well in my area.

A very fair sentence !

Isn’t it fascinating and scary that something we put in our eyes can also kill you if ingested.
