Details of how it happened, please.

You really are heartless, the trauma has scarred me.......as far as memory serves me, I think it was the White Trenchies, taking them off and snappp. The 7.62s were when I was trying to take the right earstem off, also snappp. The Eye-Jackets Cobalt / +Red, when I moved the pair off my head, snapp. The Moons, the Tortoishell, I just looked at them wrongly, the orbital broke. The FMJs, I took off at the wrong speed, broke the Left orbital..........no, ......no.... I can't continue,.....my beautiful O-Matter ,..........

Not exactly a "broken pair" but I was mowing the lawn about 10 years ago while wearing an old pair of Square Wire 2.0 with fire iridium (spring hinge) and the mower blade kicked out something, either a rock or acorn from the oak tree. The object in question came out from the mower, hit the oak tree trunk, bounced off that and hit the right lens. All I saw was a blurred object moving at high velocity. The impact left quite a mark and ruined the lens. Those glasses saved my right eye for sure, which is why I like Oakley even more now.

edit: I should also mention that the impact was hard enough that it flaked off the iridium around the impact area.
