Seeing through eyes with keratoconus

Postby Andrew MacLean » Sat 13 Jun 2009 5:51 pm

Years ago, somebody posted on one of these strings a series of pictures that showed what it was like to look at the world through eyes with keratoconus. I was trying to find the link, but I am afraid I failed.

Does anyone here have access to these pictures, or have a URL for their location on the www?
