{left eye}she said the eyes are the only part of the body where you can see the blood vessels, etc. without cutting them open. so you can actually learn a lot about the body...and your health...by looking at your eyes. kind of cool!

Cool. They look like some kind of crazy planet! My homeopathic doctor in MI always takes a close picture of our eyes when we go. He spots a lot of stuff by looking at the eye -- inside, but also the iris -- and it's saved my mom the need for surgery, etc. The human body is amazing!
I like it. Very very cool.
that's fun.. are those other dark spots your astygmatisms or whatever they are called?
JJ thought this was very cool--he says the dark spots are called Macula or the sweet spot of vision. He also said he must have a very nice camera. He can only see a small portion of the eye with his little scope. Then again he is a student--not a Dr. How fun you got to have the picture sent to you.
no macular degeneration there! lovely vessels Maren...
Maren! I finally have the internet at my house again, checked your blog, and am sooooo impressed by your sewing projects. Leah looks so cute in that little sundress! Show us a pic of her in the shirt dress!
