ORDER
James Nalley appeals the district court's judgment dismissing his civil rights action filed under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983. The appeal has been referred to a panel pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Upon examination of the certified record and briefs, the panel unanimously agrees that oral argument is not needed. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a).
Nalley claimed that the defendants, prison officials at the Luther Luckett Correctional Complex, subjected him to cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the eighth amendment when they negligently failed to treat his eye injury caused by a welding flux.
The district court granted the defendants summary judgment concluding that they were not deliberately indifferent to Nalley's serious medical need.
Upon consideration, we conclude that the district court's judgment should be affirmed because Nalley's complaint is insufficient to establish an eighth amendment violation. See Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97, 104-05 (1967); Westlake v. Lucas, 537 F.2d 857, 860 (6th Cir.1976).
Accordingly, the district court's judgment is hereby affirmed. Rule 9(b)(5), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
