The Most Haunting thing I have ever seen

I hate things in my eyes. i hate things in Other people’s eyes. Its my own personal hell. So have a look at what will be waiting for me if i go south on death. Its a 1900s ophthalmophantome…….

Device used by ophthalmology students to hone surgical skills. Two spring mounted brass eyeholders with pincers would hold pig eyes for future ophthalmologists to practice their craft before operating on human patients”

I have to admit, it totally skeeves me out.
