The old "it's only funny until someone loses an eye" line took on new meaning this week in the form of a lawsuit filed against a Medieval Times restaurant in Southern California.

Wiseman "has reportedly gone through three surgeries since and has been rendered legally blind in that eye, according to their lawyer," the O.C. Weekly reports.
