I've been gardening for 30 years, never any issues. Last year I pulled a broken branch out of a hedge and a bit I hadn't seen wacked me in the eye. Couple of hours later I was seeing flashes and a massive floater-like object appeared, a bit like a wobbling HUD graticule around my central vision. Turned out to be a posterior vitreous detachment which luckily settled down (mostly). Thank Christ. I bought some airsoft goggles which are reasonably comfortable and non-misting, and wear them when doing any significant work, even just gardening.
