Vision test poll!
Does your DMV/Licensing agency use those binocular looking, countertop vision test things?
If so, do you wear glasses, and do you have trouble with them? i.e. not being able to see part of the test, having it be blurrier than you'd expect for your general vision, etc.

Out of darkness, blind Mexican #cavefish illuminate brain #evolution

What happens when evolution rewires a brain for life in total darkness? In a study of the blind Mexican cavefish, researchers uncovered an evolutionary surprise: unlike their sighted relatives, cavefish become more active in light rather than darkness. Using whole-brain imaging at cellular resolution, the team revealed that neural circuits have effectively flipped their responses to light and dark. The findings offer a rare glimpse into how evolution reshapes the brain and could shed light on neurological disorders ranging from Parkinson’s disease to autism and ADHD.
Scientists engineered a virus to reverse age related vision loss.
Just need to stick a needle in your eye....zoinks!

University of #Texas professor Adam Annaccone notes the century-old tradition from Babe Ruth’s burned cork persists as much for pre-game routine and confidence as for #optics.
