Humorous Comments

Since I don?t really have anything to write about today, I will share some humorous comments made to people with keratoconus (KC). If you fail to see why these comments are humorous, please click here to see a previous write up on this subject.

P.S. All of these comments were taken from an unofficial poll taken by a forum member of the KC Open Community

• ?Oh, are you one of these ?too vain for glasses? people??
- No I?m one of those ?like to be able to see without major distortions? sort.
• ?Why don?t you get stronger glasses if you can?t see well?? ? My doctor and I never thought of that!
• ?Why don?t you get Lasik surgery ? it made a world of difference for my brother?? Note: Lasik surgery would make things even worse than they are now!
• ?You?ve been to college, so you shouldn?t have any problem getting used to those [contact] lenses? ? Whaaat? About needing a transplant: ?What about glasses and contacts. Did your doctor try that?? ? No, really, glasses and contacts ? didn?t know there were such things!
• ?I had that once, but it went away. It?s no big deal.? ? and your doctorate degree came from where?
• ?Your eyes are red? ? No they?re green
• ?Why do you hold things so close to read. Are you going blind or something?? ? Why yes I am, thank you for noticing.
• From police officer: ?Have you been smoking drugs today son?? ? OK the question isn?t funny but regardless of the truth, did the officer actually expect the young man to say ?Why, yes I have officer??
• ?I don?t know why you can?t read it, it?s written in English? ? Hey sometimes it?s all the same to me whether it?s English, German or Chinese!
• From an Optician ?Did you get hit in the eye, there?s a dent in your cornea.? ? And you?re the professional?
• ?Are you sure the doctor knows what he?s talking about? Because cats have elongated corneas and they actually see better at night.? Hmm, maybe I ought to see a vet instead.
• From a military doctor: ?I am going to recommend termination of your employment because I have heard of this disease and your eyes could suddenly explode over night.? ? If that is the case, maybe Kcer?s can be used as a secret weapon.
• ?But you have such beautiful eyes, they look alright to me. I don?t see where the problem is.? ? In your brain? Just a guess.

In reply to the cop's comments, I think "your eyes look glazed, have you been eating doughnuts?" is the most appropriate reply..

That would have been a good one!
