She had reconstructive surgery on her face and a metal plate in her arm — and blames the tumble on tiles “awash with water”.
She was staying at the four-star Pestana Royal in Madeira, Portugal, with husband Mark, 60, last March when she slipped.
Pauline, of Bury, Gtr Manchester, said: “I’d done a morning aqua aerobics class and I’d just exited the pool.
“The next thing I know, I’m on the floor and there’s blood streaming from my face and I’m in agony.
“It was so sudden.”
She added: “The whole of my eye socket was a mess of bone and debris, and my cheekbone was utterly smashed.”
Pauline, who is hoping for compensation, said: “I’ve been to hell and back.”
EasyJet said it was unable to comment due to the legal action.
