A 14-year-old has been blinded in one eye and damaged in the the other due to an e-cigarette explosion after a Vape shop clerk in a Brooklyn mall plugged the vaporizer into the wrong battery.
The incident occurred on April 5 at Plaza Vapes kiosk in Kings Plaza Mall.
“In my left eye, I have a cut through the cornea and I can’t see out of it, and on my right eye, the cornea was cut halfway through and I can see a little bit,” Leor Domatov told Daily News.
He also suffered chemical burns on both hands, “It’s very painful,” he said.
Domatov said he was sampling one of the devices.
