• Seeing things with 20/20 vision is commonly considered good vision in the United States. In Canada and the rest of the world that uses the metric system, normal vision is 6/6 (6 meters as opposed to 20 feet.)

This term basically means that you have “good visual acuity at 20 feet” (6 m), which is normal distance vision.

• The Snellen chart was developed by Dr. Hermann Snellen, a Dutch ophthalmologist, in 1862. This “eye” chart has 11 lines of block letters, beginning with a single letter at the top, usually E. The size of the letters gets smaller from the top of the chart to the bottom, so there are more letters on the bottom row than on the top. The eighth row of letters is usually the line for 20/20 (6/6) vision. Sixty-one percent of Americans wear corrective lenses to get to “normal” vision.

• So, are all letters of the alphabet on the chart? No. The letters used are only C, D, H, K, N, O, R, S, V and Z. These are the Sloan letters, which were designed

by Louise Sloan in 1959. These letters are called “optotypes.” turn the page for more!

EYES (continued): • Babies’ eyes are about 75 percent of the size of adult eyes at birth. The optic nerve, internal eye structures and visual function continue to develop in the first two years of life.

Hours: Mon - Fri 10a - 6p And by Appointmennt

• Each component of the eye has a special function, and together the components are necessary for good vision. Eye professionals have to spend a lot of time figuring out all of the ways to “fix” vision problems.

Imagine the days before eyeglasses, contacts and surgeries were available! Today, we are able to see well into old age.

• The Chinese claim to be the inventors of eyeglasses but apparently used them initially only to ward off evil spirits. These eyeglasses were for protection and probably lacked the ability to improve vision.

Historians are unsure who invented the first eyeglasses used to improve vision.

• The first known artistic representation of eyeglasses was a painting by Tommaso da Modena in 1352.

The glasses in his painting were perched on the nose of his subject even though most known early glasses for improving sight were not. Monocles, scissors-glasses and lorgnettes used for improving vision were either worn around the neck on ribbons or chains, clipped to clothing or just hand-held.

• Monocles were framed lenses attached to a chain or ribbon and used for one eye when needed.

Lorgnettes were two lenses in a frame that the user would hold up to the eyes. They were somewhat of a fashion statement, especially for ladies. They were popular at the opera and masquerade parties.

Scissors-glasses were two lenses on a Y-shaped frame that, like a monocle, were hung on a ribbon or chain.

• Contact lenses are not as “new” as you may think. The idea goes back to the late 1800s when glassblower F.E. Muller, a German known for making glass eyes, blew a protective lens for a man who had cancer. The patient wore the lens for 20 years until his death, without losing his vision. The term “contact lens” actually is attributed to a Swiss physician, Dr. A. Eugen Fick, who published the Continued on page 7

Cat Q & A

Tidbits® of Douglas County 3

The Buddy Center Needs Your Help

90% of senior cats over 10 years of age have varying degrees of arthritis and joint pain. Cats are masters at hiding disease and arthritis is one of the many diseases that cats commonly hide from their owners. Sore cats jump up & down less, sleep more, walk with a mild limp, have litterbox accidents, stop playing and are much less social. This is not just getting old, it is due to pain. In nature any animal showing disability is the target for predation so cats know that they need to hide problems.

Hill’s prescription diet j/d is the first diet to effectively treat arthritis. The diet plays a pivotal role in decreasing pain, inflammation, and increasing mobility. In a research study, cats with arthritis showed that 71% had pain induced behavioral changes but only 17% in that group showed signs of lameness.

Using a diet to control phosphorus levels and increased omega 3 fatty acids -- the kidneys and joints functioned better. J/d also has increased levels of L-carnitine to help control weight and adjust blood sugar levels. Age is not a disease.

Managing age related diseases is the purpose of senior wellness care. J/d has been available to cat lovers in Europe for over a year. Cats that eat the food consistently for 28 days show a marked improvement in – walking, jumping, running and playing more. The palatability of the diet is very good but of course your cat will be the judge. If in your opinion the food does not meet your expectations – return it for a full refund because it is a guaranteed prescription diet. Talk with our staff at Cat Specialist about how this diet can help your cat. The J/d nutritional approach is a major step forward in improving the quality of life of our senior cats!

719-339-3525 • We Deliver 1 in 6 Cats Have Heart Disease!

Cats are the masters of hiding illness and they commonly have sudden onset of life threatening cardiac signs. Apparently healthy cats that undergo elective anesthetic procedures like dental cleaning, spays & neuters and then unexpectedly die, most likely have underlying heart disease as the cause. The Cat Specialist doctors have studied this problem and they wrote one of the first papers in 2005 defining how common ‘silent’ heart disease is in the cat.

The good news is that Cat Specialist has led the way in doing pre-anesthetic echocardiograms. Early diagnosis of ‘silent’ heart disease and proper treatment allow cats to live normal lives. It is very rare in our practice to see sudden death syndrome because our doctors are very aware of this deadly problem. If you have questions please call our hospital.

Dental technicians use an ultrasonic dental scaler to remove the calculus and to clean under the gum line.

Dental cleanings are performed under general anesthesia as most pets do not lie still or hold their mouths open if awake during cleaning. A thorough cleaning and full mouth dental radiographs can be done under anesthesia.

butterflykissesbyizzy@gmail.com

Veterinarians should minimize the risk of general anesthesia by doing a thorough physical exam and blood work based on the pet’s age and health issues.

Placing intravenous catheters and fluid administration keep patients hydrated and blood flowing to vital organs during the dental cleaning. Monitoring equipment like a pulse oximeter (to check oxygen levels), an EKG to monitor heart rhythms, and a blood pressure monitor to assure adequate blood flow to vital organs should be a part of any anesthesia. Full mouth dental x-rays can detect hidden signs of disease below the gum line and in the mouth bones. With preanesthetic preparation and monitoring, anesthesia can be safe. The health threats from untreated dental disease can be much greater than the risk of anesthesia.

National Pet Dental Health Month February and March are Pet Dental Health Months at many animal hospitals. Dental care for dogs and cats helps promote whole body health. Bad breath can be a sign of a more serious problem and not just a bad odor.

Pets and humans who receive regular dental care live longer, healthier lives. Most pets, dogs and cats, will have dental tartar. Dental plaque is the soft yellow material composed of saliva, food particles, and bacteria. It can be brushed with a toothbrush or wiped off with a finger cot or gauze sponge. Dental calculus, or tartar, is the hard material that is adherent to the surface of the tooth and cannot be removed with routine brushing. Dental tartar can cause periodontal disease. Signs of dental disease

You can take part in your pet’s dental health by: 1) brushing your pet’s teeth daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush or finger brush and pet-approved toothpaste; 2) feed your pet a special dental diet; 3) offer appropriate chew treats that help control and remove plaque and tartar; 4) look for products that carry the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC) seal of approval on products that help control plaque and tartar in dogs and cats; 5) your veterinarian does regular oral examinations and will recommend dental cleaning when indicated for your cat or dog. Ask your veterinarian to recommend specific dental diets and dental treats that are right for your pet.

The Russian Czar Alexander II (1818-1881) has the distinction of having his name on this rare gemstone.

The very first crystals were discovered in April 1834 in the emerald mines near the Tokovaya River in the Ural Mountains. The discovery was made on the same day the future Czar of Russia came of age. Because the stone shows both read and green, the principal colors of old Imperial Russia, it became the national stone of Czarist Russia.

George Frederick Kunz (1856-1932), master gemologist for Tiffany’s, produced some beautiful series of rings and platinum ensembles at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. This lovely stone was also used in Victorian jewelry produced in England during the Victorian era.

The distinctive feature about this stone is its ability to change color. In daylight Alexandrite appears green or bluish-green but when brought into incandescent light it will turn to a soft shade of red, purplish-red or raspberry red. Because of its ability to change colors Alexandrite is one of the most valuable gemstones of all! Scarcity is another reason for its high value. Its formation required specific geological conditions and millions of years to form.

• Sometimes there is confusion over which eye professional to see for eye problems. Opticians manufacture and dispense glasses and contacts.

They often deal with patients after they have seen an optometrist or ophthalmologist. An optometrist is a vision professional who can diagnose vision problems, prescribe contacts and eyeglasses, provide treatment before and after eye surgery and prescribe drugs for various eye problems. Ophthalmologists are licensed medical doctors and can do everything performed by optometrists plus they can perform eye surgery.

An ophthalmologist must complete four years of medical school following a college degree and an internship that focuses on their desired specialty.

• Animal eyes are varied in their placement, size and acuity. Many animals have vision that is far superior to humans. Maybe that is why we never see animals with eyeglasses! Do you know which animal has the largest eyeballs on earth? That would be the giant squid, whose eyes are about the size of beach balls (about 18 inches, 45.7 cm).

Imagine meeting those underwater! Ostriches have the largest eyes of any land animal, measuring about two inches (5 cm) across. Ostrich eyes are bigger than their brains, which are about the size of a walnut.

• If someone says you are “blind as a bat,” consider this: Bats are not blind, but they don’t use their eyes to see. They use sound waves instead.

They make high-pitched sounds and listen for the echoes when the sounds bounce off objects.

This is called echolocation. Whales, dolphins, some shrews and a few species of birds also use echolocation.

• Horned toads (short-horned lizards) are interesting little reptiles that have a couple of very odd talents to help them ward off predators.

They can inflate their bodies up to twice their size, looking like little spiny balloons, and some of the species have the most bizarre ability to shoot blood from their eyes. The blood comes from ducts in the corners of their eyes and can travel up to three feet (one meter). This “talent” is used to confuse predators and contains a chemical that is noxious to coyotes, wolves and dogs.

• Have you ever been told you have “eagle eyes?”

If so, you must have great vision. An average person can see a rabbit at about 550 yards (503 m), while an eagle can see it at about a mile (1,760 yards or 1,609 m). So, protect your vision and enjoy what you see!

AGAINST ALL ODDS:

CAPTAIN SCOTTY SMILEY

Scott Smiley graduated from The United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, in 2003. He took the motto of “Duty, Honor, Country” very seriously — and still does. His life changed drastically on April 6, 2005.

• Smiley had been through Army Ranger training and was a combat-diver qualified infantryman with plans to serve in special operations. He was a lieutenant in charge of a Stryker Brigade Combat Team platoon in Iraq when his future plans were altered.

Toward that end, you’ll want to start by learning a few of the estate plan basics, such as these commonly used tools: Will — For most people, a will is probably the most essential estate-planning document. Regardless of the size of your estate, you need a will to ensure that your assets and personal belongings will be distributed according to your wishes. If you die intestate (without a will), your belongings will be distributed to your “heirs” as defined by state laws — and these distributions may not be at all what you had in mind.

Living trust — A simple will may not be sufficient for your needs. Consequently, you may want to design a living trust, which provides you with more flexibility in distributing assets. For example, you could direct your living trust to disperse assets to your children or grandchildren at specific ages. Also, a living trust makes it possible for your assets to be distributed without going through the often time-consuming, and public, probate process.

Beneficiary designations — Over time, your life may change in many ways, through marriage, remarriage, children, stepchildren and so on. That’s why it’s important to periodically update your beneficiary designations on your insurance policies and retirement accounts, such as your IRA and 401(k). These designations are powerful and can even supersede the instructions left in your will or living trust, so it’s essential that you’ve got the right people listed as your beneficiaries.

Irrevocable life insurance trust — Depending on the size of your estate, your heirs may ultimately have to pay estate taxes, though the estate tax laws have been in flux in recent years and may continue to evolve. If estate taxes are a concern, you may want to take steps to alleviate them, such as establishing an irrevocable life insurance trust, under which you’d transfer a life insurance policy out of your estate and have the trust distribute the proceeds to the beneficiaries you’ve chosen.

Power of attorney — A power of attorney allows you to appoint a person (an “Attorney-in-Fact” or “Agent”) to handle your affairs if you can’t do so yourself.

Health care directive — A health care directive allows you to name someone to make health care decisions on your behalf, should you become physically or mentally incapacitated.

Estate planning can be complex, so you’ll need to work with your tax, legal and financial advisors to make the arrangements that are appropriate for your needs. It may take some time to develop your estate plan, but it’s well worth the effort.

LIFE DOESN’T STAND STILL AND NEITHER

SHOULD YOUR INVESTMENTS. To schedule a complimentary Portfolio Review, call today.

Last week I began to write on the subject of healing in the Bible, and we looked at the case of the leper who came to Jesus in Matt. 8 and he asked Jesus a very profound question. He said, “I know you can if you will”. In other words, I know your power can heal me but I do not know if it is your will to heal me. And we read where Jesus answered that question once and for all by saying, “I will, be clean”. And immediately the leprosy left this man.

Today let’s look at another occurrence found in Matt 9, the woman with the issue of blood. The Bible tells us that this woman was in this condition now for 12 long years and she had spent every dime she had on doctors and treatments but yet was not better in any way. Did you know that sickness will rob you of your finances, rob you of your income, rob you of your time, rob you of your relationships, rob you of all that is good in this life? That is where this woman found herself. These things come from the devil, they are not of God, and they are not good in any form.

Anyone who says, “Well God put this sickness on me to teach me a lesson”, frankly does not know the Lord!

God never ever puts sickness on anybody, in fact a large part of our salvation that Jesus provided for you and me on the cross is the healing of our bodies.

So this woman finds herself in a desperate place and desperate people will do desperate things.

Somehow she has heard that as many as have touched even the clothes of Jesus have been totally and instantly healed by him. So she tells herself, “If I can but touch him, I will be clean”. Wow, what a faith statement that is! And that is exactly what faith will do, faith will declare ahead of time, what is going to happen. Why?...Because the Bible tells us in Heb 11 that “Faith is the substance of things hope for the evidence of things not seen”. She has faith that is as yet, not seen. And if it could be seen, then she would not need faith for it, because she would have it. But she says all I need to do is touch him and I will be healed in my body. And look what happened, Luke 8:44 (NLT) Coming up behind Jesus, she touched the fringe of his robe. Immediately, the bleeding stopped.

The minute she touched him she felt the healing power of God come all over her body and she was instantly healed of her infirmity. Now some people would think that this action on her part was a bit presumptuous of her, but look what Jesus said. I think a big ol’ smile came over his face and he said, Luke 8:48 (NLT) “Daughter,” he said to her, “your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
