Per Ozark Bicycle:
3) My head struck an object whilst cycling; I was wearing a helmet and
I feel the helmet worsened the extent of my injuries.

Riding along a dedicated bike path. Took a mini-deadhead through the helmet
right above an eye.

Could go either way on that one.

On one hand, it could have been nasty if the branch had hit my eye socket and
not been stopped in the helmet. OTOH, maybe I would have seen the branch
without the helmet/visor on.
