Teri Hatcher suffered an eye injury yesterday when a light bulb exploded during filming for Desperate Housewives. The 41-year-old is now sporting a patch over her right eye after having a shard of glass removed - and she will not be able to resume shooting the hit TV show until the injury heals.

She says, "Glass lodged in my right eye and proceeded to scratch my cornea. I was taken to a wonderful eye doctor, and am now wearing a most glamorous eye patch over the right half of my face. I like to look at the positive, and the good news is the cornea is the fastest healing tissue in the body. I'm in some pain, but trying to see the humour in the oddity of it all. No one was at fault."

Hatcher hopes to be back at work in two days.
