Makes a pair of months was stung by a bee in an eye.
It is a very distasteful sensation, and extremely painful. I lost
momentarily the vision of this eye.
Hours after, the pain disappeared and I recovered the vision.
Speaking thereinafter with bee people, they said me that when is sat the
nonfriendly buzz of a bee defend the eyes with one hand .
In a nutshell: a painful experience, without consequences of long term and
that is possible to avoid.
