Two days later, the vision thing is pretty amazing now, Sonny.
I can clearly see details of the communication masts 7.3km away on top 
of Three Rock hill in the Dublin mountains as well as reading this email 
as I type 73 cm from my screen. I can throw away all my 2.5 to 3.5 
reading glasses and probably replace them with a 1.5 for really small 
type. Going on this, I'd say to anyone who has had deteriorating sight, 
go to the medics for an evaluation. Still have to stick drops in my 
right eye, and not lift anything heavy, for another couple of weeks or so.

Douglas wa-a-a-y-y-y past his prime as cougar meat
