Ew... Must have been painful (but it sure makes for a great x-ray picture!).

So did his eyeball pop out? Or were they able to save his eye?

The article says his eye was not damaged... Also says the guy just pulled it out himself while the doctors were trying to figure out what to do.

Wow!

Related note... I hear this guy has a future ahead of him. Some say he has a good eye for faucet design.
