(NAPSI)—If you ever have trouble seeing your way clear to getting your eyes checked, here’s a case to consider: Genida White could tell her vision was gradually getting worse, but she rationalized away the need to see an ophthalmologist—a medical doctor who specializes in eyecare. She could still do all the things she enjoyed, such as bowling every Monday. But mostly, she was nervous to hear what the doctor would say about her eyes.
 
Her daughter provided the encouragement she needed, telling her about a radio advertisement she heard about free eye exams with EyeCare America. No more excuses; it was time for an appointment. While, unfortunately, Genida did receive the diagnosis she feared—she would need surgery to remove cataracts in both eyes—the results were brilliant. The improvement in her vision was swift and dramatic.

That was the third time the 32-year-old was off in a game since the commencement of his professional career at JSM Cheraga in 2008.
After crumbling to a 4-2 home defeat to Paris Saint-Germain last time out, Lyon travelled to Stade Bollaert-Delelis with the ambition of returning to winning ways.
However, they met strong resistance from Franck Haise’s team who were unbeaten in their last two league outings.
After a goalless first-half, Lens took the lead in the 65th minute courtesy of French right-back Jonathan Clauss.
With Maxence Caqueret losing possession, the 28-year-old charged forward, raced onto Gael Kakuta's inch-perfect through-ball before firing low between Anthony Lopes' legs for his third league goal of the 2020-21 season.

Retinal detachment is a serious eye condition where the retina – the layer of tissue at the back of the eye that is light-sensitive – pulls away from the tissue surrounding it. Sometimes known as a detached retina, this is a serious eye condition that requires prompt treatment.
Dr Roger Henderson looks at retinal detachment causes, symptoms and potential treatment options:
What is the retina?
When light enters the eye it is focused by the lens onto the back of the eye – the retina. The retina then produces an image that is sent to the optic nerve which transports the picture to the brain and we then ‘see’ that image. If the retina becomes damaged in any way, our vision is affected and any image is altered.

Mr Labrador had been a pastry chef for a year at The Star in Sydney, Australia's second-largest casino, when the thought of returning to the Philippines started to surface.

Foggy lens are an annoying side-effect of the glasses and face mask combo but, if a new study is anything to go by, there might be a rewarding payoff.
People who wear glasses are less likely to contract coronavirus, a new study has found.
The study is the latest in a series of studies regarding Covid-19 and wearing glasses, showing that those who need spectacles may be less exposed to the virus, compared to those who don't wear glasses.

LIÉVIN, FRANCE: It is the most ambitious move in the history of the Louvre — a five-year project to transfer 250,000 works of art to an ultramodern storage site 120 miles away in northern France.

And yet that is the challenge facing Arnaud Kalimuendo.
The 19-year-old has been with PSG since the age of 10 after beginning his footballing education with local side FC Saint Cloud in the Parisian suburbs, with his eye for goal having consistently been his key attribute.
In two seasons from the beginning of the 2018-19 campaign he scored over 60 goals for the club's various youth teams, including nine in 10 games in the UEFA Youth League.
That led him to the fringes of the first team, but breaking through into such a star-studded squad has proven difficult for a host of academy graduates over the past decade.

Biden signalled a renewed democratic alliance in a rebuke of his predecessor's approach.

Australian Centre for the Moving Image Reopens After Digital Overhaul

The Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) in Melbourne reopened on Wednesday after a $30.9 million (A$40 million) overhaul.
Before it closed the venue, which evolved from the State Film Centre of Victoria, was the second most visited museum in Australia and claimed to be the most visited film museum in the world. However, its central permanent exhibition Screen Worlds, which opened in 2009 was falling behind the digital times.
The planned revamp of Screen Worlds led in 2017 to a “holistic review of our museum,” Kyra Sedgwick, the ACMI’s director explained at the reopening ceremony. It closed its doors in May 2019 and renovation work continued through much of the coronavirus period. Sedgwick said that the full refit amounted to an architectural, technological and programmatical transformation.”

Of those talents who were unable to take the next step, none were hyped up more than Kakuta, a player for whom Chelsea risked a transfer ban, but ultimately disposed of without generating any headlines.
Still only 29, Kakuta’s career has been remarkably nomadic. Managed by Clarence Seedorf, Manuel Pellegrini and Peter Bosz after leaving Chelsea, his time in the game has taken in Premier League, Ligue 1, Eredivisie, Serie A and La Liga, not to mention a spell in the Chinese Super League under Owen Coyle.
“I play with a smile," he said. "You need to feel loved and my team-mates help me a lot. When I went to China everyone said ‘Gael Kakuta is over’, but no, my aim is to join a great club in Europe.”

The upcoming four optics of 7Artisans for Nikon Z and Canon R mounts happen to be prime lenses. Two of these lenses are actually wide-angle prime lenses.
