The optician kindly took this photo for me this morning.
I explained about 365 & she was quite fascinated.
This machine is a very new invention. It was designed by an engineer whose five year old son had a detached retina which was not detected even though he’d had regular eye checks.
His son went blind in that eye so the father spent ten years designing this amazing machine!
A test on this machine cost £39 but I fell it worth it!
I have chosen some glasses, completely different from my old ones!
Took your advice @phil_howcroft
An incredible looking machine! An interesting story about how it was developed. Detached retinas are very common in premature babies because of the overgrowth of blood vessels behind the eye.
@dkbarnett My son was born at 29 weeks, but I had never heard about the retina possibility. He has had some issues but not that thankfully! How interesting.
You will have to post a photo of you wearing your new glasses when you get them.
