I sincerely sympathize. I was coming down one of the fastest descents I know on a scorcher of a day and a bee or wasp hit me right at the bridge of my nose and was stuck under nosepiece of my glasses. Bugs that think they're stuck know no other tactic other than to sting, (as you learned) and sting it did. I felt like I'd been shot point blank in the nose with a pellet gun - the swelling started immediately. Surprised I made it home, but still I was luckier than you with the eyelid- and the traffic.

Here's to a brief convalescence!
