Did you know that there is a 45% chance that lightning may strike the same spot twice instead of 0%? Analogous to the unique case when Dr. Benjamin twice saved a patient's life when diagnosing melanoma.
Don't trust those advertisements that are offering you a LASIK surgery at unreasonably low prices. This is just an old bait that works wonders to catch your attention and make you come to an office for a consultation. Once you are there, the price will double up for all the "extras," trust us.

An algorithm that can detect cardiovascular illnesses through the eyes was created by Google and Verily. Your age, blood pressure, and whether you smoke can all be reasonably determined using a retinal scan and a computer program.

Did you know that your friend—the one who can distinguish all shades of greenish—sees the world in exactly that way, not just boasts of knowledge? How do ultra-sensitive tetrachromats survive in an imperfect world? And why weren't great artists necessarily born with that spectrum?
Glaucoma is a disease, which is better to detect and start the treatment before you have a problem with parking a car.
