  1. If you have vision problems and are in #Canada, Fighting Blindness Canada is having a series of in-person Coffee Connections across the country. Each will have an eye doctor who will lead discussions and answer questions about age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or an inherited retinal disease (IRD). It also gives you a chance to meet others with the same eye conditions.
    Here are details so you can see if there is one coming up in your area.

  2. 🧠 Could the brain reveal vision loss more accurately than traditional eye tests?

  3. Ocular coloboma is a congenital eye defect that occurs when the optic fissure fails to close properly during early development. Recent research utilizing lab-grown, miniature human retinas—known as retinal organoids—has identified how mutations in a specific growth-controlling protein contribute to this condition.

  4. Guess that’s the end of Zenni Optical from Chile.

    Someone bought glasses, and after retrying the order again (by them), none was delivered. At least they refunded the order.

    After 4 months, they’re magically appeared to be delivered locally.

    Blame #DirectLink, now #PostNord, offices in #Singapore. This shit is laughable.
