>It's good to hear that you're seeing things more clearly!  After
adjusting to my first pair of contacts when I was a teenager (yikes,
almost 15 years ago now :-))

In spite of my diligent reading of volumes and volumes of the Playboy
magazines and other philosophical literature with social redeeming
values, I NEVER had to wear glasses -- even though on my latest
driver's license test, I had to squint a bit to see the big "E".

The Devil (the one we met in Grand Cayman) must have been envious
of my uncorruptible vision that he sneaked a pair of cataracts as my
"devil's contacts".



>Of course since then I've had LASIK surgery and that has made all the
difference in the world and has certainly made diving more fun.  However,
Elisa spoke with my eye doctor and confirmed her suspicions that I suffer
from a chronic case of opto-rectitus.  That's the condition where the some
of the optic nerves get crossed up with ones from your asshole and you get
a shitty outlook on life.  :-)

Geez, and I thought that was Optorectumysis or Optorectumiosis.

how much they can seemingly accomplish routinely.

What laser?  Mine was just a razor surgery.  It took only about 10
minutes, and the doc didn't even have to push his hand on my forehead
and say "Heal!"


>Regardless, for those impaired, restoring sight is a miracle.  ...

Life and the human body is a miracle, and modern science hasn't even
scratch it surface yet, inspite of routine transplant of various parts.
I am still working on the algorithm of how the Sagens (billionz and
billionz) of cells in my body talk to each other without flaming
each other -- especially those asshole cells!  :-)
