About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At The Eye Institute, a delivery driver once exclaimed, ‘I just saw something I shouldn’t have!’ Everyone looked up from their charts and charts to see what he meant. Everyone craned their necks to follow his gaze—and there, on the ceiling, was an old poster of a smiling baby with googly eyes. 'Oh,' someone whispered. 'That’s been there forever.' The delivery driver scratched his head sheepishly. 'Guess I’m not as observant as I thought!'
2. At The Eye Institute, an elderly gentleman exclaimed one day, ‘I’m seeing double, but only when I look at my watch!’ It turned out his glasses were slightly misaligned, causing a funny optical illusion whenever he peered at his timepiece. A young optometrist adjusted them with a gentle tap, and from then on, our old friend could tell the exact time without any doubles or confusion.
3. At The Eye Institute, during routine check-ups, patients began reporting they could see tiny dancing dots on their retina screens. No one knew where these little specks came from—or why they only appeared after leaving the clinic. One day, an elderly neighbor popped in for a check-up and started swearing he saw miniature penguins waddling across his screen. The doctor scratched his head and said, 'Sir, those aren’t penguins—those are just your usual dancing dots.' Turns out, it was all a case of mistaken vision.
4. At The Eye Institute, a curious patient remarked one morning, ‘My vision’s so good today, I can read the menu outside!’ Later that day, an exasperated delivery driver complained, ‘I’ve been here for twenty minutes trying to find the door!’ Turns out he was standing right in front of it, just like everyone else who’d visited recently.’
