Drug prevention advocates are warning Maryland police and schools to caution students against pouring vodka in their eyes as graduation and Beach Week approach.
"It feels like a baseball bat hitting you in the back of the head -- for about two to three minutes," he said of inhaling caps full of the American-style whiskey.
Like snorting alcohol, eyeballing "gets you drunker faster on a lot less vodka," said optometrist Stephen Glasser, who has been practicing locally for more than three decades. "When you go through your eye to your sinuses, it is close to straight injection. The alcohol absorbs into the bloodstream right away."
Maryland optometrist Alan Glazier compared eyeballing to an alcohol enema.
