More information is really needed to answer this questions completely. Specific details of the accident, etc. But generally speaking, you would be entitled at a minimum to certain workers compensation benefits for loss of your eye, wage loss, and medical expenses. It is possible you have additional remedies against either the employer, a co worker, a manager, or some other entity unrelated to your employer, such as a product manufacturer, another subcontractor, etc. More details are needed to specifically and completely answer this question.
