Eye Exam
As part of a complete physical, I was now performing the visual acuity test. I placed the patient twenty feet from the eye chart and began.
“Cover your right eye with your hand, and tell me what you see.” He read the 20/20 line perfectly.
“Now, your left.” Again, a flawless reading.
“Now both,” I requested. There was silence. He couldn’t even read the large E on the top line. I turned and discovered that he had done exactly what I had asked; he was standing there with both his eyes covered.
I was laughing too hard to finish the exam!
