Living in Colorado at high altitudes like you do BB, you
should also worry about cataracts because the sun's
rays are stronger up there. Make sure your sun glasses
are stopping UVA, UVB, UVC, UVD, etc.

I know a sailor who had cataracts real bad in both eyes. It got
so he could hardly see at all and had to wear sunglasses all the
time even inside.

He got surgery and had two new artificial lenses put in and
now he can see better than I can. Funny thing, though, they
put two different fixed focus lenses in - one for reading and
one for distance. It took him a while to get used to it but now
the brain just uses whichever eye is suitable for the task and
he doesn't even have to think about it.

I wonder if a dog's brain can do the same?


Maybe you can offer yourself for the research?
