fun fact 51% of all blindness worldwide is due to cataracts. cataract surgery is over 90% effective

@chjara Can you explain to me the implication of that fact like I was a five year-old? No, wait: make it a three year-old. Thanks.

@josemanuel the implication is that a large amount of people with severe vision impairment can be cured of it with a simple surgery except they're poor and healthcare systems suck

@chjara Is that really how you'd explain stuff to three year-old kids? Because I'm pretty sure they wouldn't get it. Even I had to re-read it a couple of times.

No, seriously, thanks. I got it now.
