About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the dimly lit hallway of Morledge Family Eye Clinic, a regular patient noticed something peculiar one morning. Among the usual medical supplies on the counter lay an old, dusty pair of spectacles, their lenses fogged with age and curiosity. Curious, she picked them up and wiped away the dust. Suddenly, through the misted lenses, she saw not her own reflection but the smiling face of her next-door neighbor. Turns out, he had left them there after his last visit. The whole office burst into laughter when she returned them.

2. At dawn, when most clinics were quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Morledge Family Eye Clinic with an unusual package. As he approached the door, he heard a voice whispering from inside: 'Left or right? Left or right?' Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man in glasses holding a compass, pointing it at him and asking again, ‘Left or right?’ The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and left without answering. Turns out, the old man was just trying to decide which way to hang his new picture.

3. At sunset, when most clinics close their doors, an old man walked into Morledge Family Eye Clinic with a basket full of apples. The doctor took one look and declared, ‘These are not for you—you’re seeing perfectly fine!’ The old man beamed, pulled out his wallet, and said, ‘Just wanted to drop off some fresh apples for my favorite optometrist.’ Everyone in the waiting room burst out laughing, realizing that Dr. Morledge was the healthiest, happiest-eyed person they’d ever seen.

4. In the middle of the night, as Morledge Family Eye Clinic’s reception desk stood eerily silent, a sign on the door caught everyone’s attention: ‘Closed for Lens Cleaning.’ One night, an elderly neighbor popped in, worried he’d left his lights on. The sign confused him—was it really closed? A delivery driver arrived next, puzzled why no one answered. Finally, a regular patient asked the staff, who just shrugged and said, 'It’s not us—it’s the lenses!'
