    Just remembered this last night. Landry, right? I mean, how hard it this guy being hit to dislodge contacts as well as teeth?
    Assume the lenses are soft.
    Don't know if his teeth have been his own, caps or implants.
    Geez he is tough.

    He should get LASIK eye surgery during the offseason. I'm sure he has enough money to do it.

    contacts don't always come off with contact, a lot of times just moving your eye too quickly a certain way can cause it to come out...or if it's drying out it's also likely ot come out...

    and i think he had at least one tooth put in the front, so i think at least one of those was fake.

    contacts tend to come off easily. ive been clobbered going into the paint before, and while i didn't lose 3 teeth like carl did, one of my contacts fell off. as the other poster mentioned, it's probably due to closing your eyes or shifting your eyes really quickly upon the impact of the contact.

    He's been shot, had knee injury, lost alot of teeth. I don't think I've ever seen someone get that hurt before, and I'm in the healthcare biz!

    The man is a warrior. He's endured all this as a Rocket ... we owe him BIG.

    There still a really small change of failure in the procedure. Imagine a blind Landry. He'd still be a beast.

    honestly with his injury record it'd probably happen too. he seems like the most unlucky person when it comes to injury because they're all freak accidents. Nothing to do with being out of shape or not taking care of himself (like some 'super'stars *cough tracy cough*)

    I think he should have his remaining teeth sharpened and join the Immortals.
