another wonder of modern medicine

went to an optometrist for a second look at the recalcitrant eye --- he actually took the time to explain (and photograph) what the surgeon had done, since it would have fkn killed the surgeon if he had to stop and answer a question --- anyway, the eye is not perfect, but what is?

i had seen something of the lens just looking in the mirror, but i hadn't seen the little wire-like hooks on each side which hold the lens in place ---

as a friend just pointed out, in olden times, people would just have had to go blind
