About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the Macular & Retina Institute with a box full of delicate equipment. As he unloaded the cargo, he noticed something peculiar: every time he looked directly at the building’s sign, it seemed to change color. Curious, he glanced away and back again—this time the sign glowed softly like neon lights. Startled, he bumped into an old man who just happened to be walking by. ‘You okay?’ asked the neighbor. The delivery guy nodded, still staring at the changing colors. Finally, realizing his mistake, he laughed sheepishly and said, “I guess I’m seeing things today.”
2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to the Macular & Retina Institute and noticed an unusual sign on the door: ‘Please wait for your appointment in the lobby—your eyesight may be temporarily affected.’ The delivery driver shrugged and went inside. After waiting patiently for ten minutes, he asked the receptionist what was going on. She smiled sweetly and replied, 'Oh, don’t worry—it’s just our new experimental procedure that makes patients’ vision blurry until they reach the correct floor.' The driver nodded understandingly, then calmly walked out and delivered his package to a neighboring building.
3. One afternoon, a curious neighbor asked: ‘Why does that doctor’s office always have such strange visitors?’ The doctor would nod and smile, saying, 'Oh, just another patient with a rare condition.' The neighbor shook their head, laughing softly. 'Next time I’ll bring my binoculars,' they joked, watching with amusement as yet another unusual figure walked through the doors.
4. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Macular & Retina Institute with a box of supplies. As he stepped out of the truck, he noticed something odd: the neon sign above the entrance kept flashing different colors, not its usual steady green glow. Curious, he approached closer and saw that each color corresponded to a different room inside—green for the ophthalmologists’ offices, red for surgeries, blue for labs. The driver laughed, realizing it was just an old trick used by the staff to help new visitors navigate in the dark. He waved goodbye to the blinking sign as he drove off, thinking it might be time for him to get his own eyes checked.
