The "Eyes" Have It

Look into my eyes...

Come closer...

Please ignore the wrinkles...

closer still...

Close enough!

I went to the eye doctor this week and he has a new camera that can take a picture of the back of your eye. Being a diabetic these pictures can give him an up close and personal view of my blood vessels. When he first showed me the pictures my first words were, "are those dark spots supposed to be there?" Thank goodness they are. It's called the macula and this is the area that has the largest density of cones.

I may have high cholesterol, type II diabetes

and sucky knees but my eyes are in great shape!
