Hmm I gotta look into that. Yup never heals.
There's a new thing where they have been able to reshape the lens by first acidifying it, then returning it to normal after massaging it into a new shape... Rabbit eyes so far, not human... Because rabbits can't scream like...like...like they were reshaping their eyeballs with acid.
Unfun fact: Rabbits actually can scream, I have had the misfortune of hearing it. It's not a sound you forget.
Oh that's terrible.
This reminds me of my families collective trauma, the summer of screaming bunnies!
We had our cat and her new litter of 3 kittens go out into our wooded acre property that was heavily populated by bunnies…was. Their first summer was “active”. We tried to save the first 12 or so but by the second week of July we just numbly listened to the cries while trying to eat dinner. Fun times. Miss those cats though, even if they were murder hobos
when you say lens, do you mean cornea? i thought most myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism was caused by problems with the shape of the cornea.
ok, i looked up this treatment, and it says "animal tissue tests", not "animal tests", so i suspect the rabbits are long past the point of being bothered :|
I think you're right.
