Since I practice as an optometrist when I'm not tending the cattle farm, I gotta reply. I always appreciate KYHayman's responses on this forum because he almost always tells of his experience rather than his opinion, so I am going to try to respond in that manner. I am a doctor. I am board certified nationally and by the state of Missouri to provide primary, secondary and tertiary care to people with vision and systemic health problems. I chose to be an optometrist rather than an ophthalmologist because my hands are not steady enough to be a good surgeon. I respect any ophthalmologist tremendously for their gifts. I practice in a fairly rural setting, so I get to deal with lots of different eye related problems from blurry vision to cataracts to brain tumors. If I don't have and answer to a patient's symptomes, I find a doctor who does. Your advice to get a second opinion is sound advice, but you are wrong to suggest that any ophthalmologist is better educated that any optometrist - I've had way to many experiences where I had to scour text books for hours to treat a patient that the local opthalmologists weren't able to treat even when the diagnosis was known.

Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
