it’s the Daily Fail, so now I doubt the exisistence of the moon, the sun, and my own eyes.
so 25 at one dr., and allegedly 100 from the 2017 eclipse (total usa?); what’s annoying about this is it should be trivial to measure this in the data, dr.s visits, new patienhts, sales of whatevs helps (drug or anything?), or just diagnosises by drs in and out o f path of totality, there should be an obvious signal in there, if not, then it’s a somewhat less dangerous or harmfal, or the message is ideed heeded .
“Dr. Jeffrey Dello Russo, an ophthalmologist and LASIK eye surgeon at Dello Russo Laser Vision/New Jersey Eye Center, told DailyMail.com that he’s spoken with approximately 25 patients who damaged their eyes during the eclipse.”
“At the time, Dello Russo said there were about 100 cases of people who experienced total vision loss from looking at the solar eclipse without the appropriate ISO glasses. “
