Twenty/Thirty


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest FinalistBetterPhoto.com Photo of the Day   Twenty/Thirty
Twenty/Thirty
I combined three shots taken at the eye doctor in PSCS--two shots of the eye chart, one in focus and one out of focus and a third shot of their phoropter machine (with the BG removed) over the combined eye chart. I make no claim that the final image is medically correct (just fun) :0)

Murry Grigsby 		  THanks Don! One other thing, since they don't use the old paper eye chart anymore but project one on the wall via a mirror all the letters were backwards in my photos so I had to flip them horizontally in PSCS to put them back the way our eyes like to see them :0)

Murry Grigsby 		  Thanks ALL! I’ve just complete my left eye’s cataract surgery and got the patch off this morning. Wow, it’s like someone went out and put black outlines around everything. I can’t believe how clear I can see in that eye now and I read the eye chart at 20/30 (LOL) this morning. I’ll have the right eye done the 30th and should be back to (better than) normal. I probably will need some kind of glasses for reading and close-up work Anyway I appreciate the comments and how appropriate to have this image show up today :0)

C A 		  Hello Murry,
Thank you for your nice comment on my panorama windmill photo. You have some great shots. This one reminds me of a few years ago. I had to go there for bad eyesight.. I had my eyes lasered so it is history for some time.. Very original idea! Well done. Best wishes, Corné

Murry Grigsby 		  Thanks Corne! I recently had lens implants after cataract surgery (hence the image) and it's the best thing I've ever done. My wife claims I now have bionic eyes and I guess in a way she is correct :0)
