Regaining eagle-sharp eyesight
Feb 15th, 2008 by The Seer
Heart-warming story of the day:
UK scientists managed to restore eagle-sharp eyesight to a patient after it developed cataracts and retinal damage. It accidentally flew into an electrical pylon.
Yes, “patient” was really a golden eagle.
She was named “Electra” after the comic book character made famous by Jennifer Garner in her skin tight costume. These animal rescuers sure have a great sense of humour.
