The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    Made Oct 15, 2012, sent to the company Oct 23, 2012, published by CPSC Nov 13, 2012

    The product, in the report: Stretchy Toy Snake. Blue. Purchased from Wal-Mart in Paso Robles, California. Manufactured by Ja-Ru, Inc.

    My 3-year-old daughter was playing with a stretchy rubber snake. As she stretched the snake, it broke, and one end of it snapped back into her eye. She lost consciousness and the eye immediately filled with blood. After we called 911, she was taken by ambulance to the hospital. She was seen by an opthamologist, who told us that permanent vision loss was a strong possibility. The doctor ordered a regimen of eye drops and bed rest. We saw him daily for two weeks so he could monitor the pressure and bleeding in her eye. Her vision returned to normal after two weeks. However, she does have a permanent cataract in the injured eye. It requires an annual evaluation, and may eventually have to be surgically removed if it impairs her vision.
