Spooky eye fact:

Red-Eye Effect - The red-eye effect in photos occurs when the flash reflects off the blood vessels in the retina, giving a creepy, glowing appearance to the eyes.

Dr. Bagan found this old photograph of himself from 1984. He was doing charity cataract surgery on an isolated island in the south Philippine islands. There was a lot of rebel activity in the area and the hospital entrance was guarded by an armed service man.

Dr. Bagan takes the time and care to explain what’s going on with his patients.

Fun Fact:

We Blink Between 20,000 and 30,000 Times Every Day

Each blink lasts just two-tenths of a second but that adds up to approximately 1.5 hours per day. Blinking removes dirt and lubricates the eye with moist tears. Each blink brings nutrients to the eye surface structures keeping them healthy.
