and here I thought the surgery was to remove a tooth from the eye
Sentences constructed by the utterly deranged. Who thinks up this stuff?!
And still, there are people out there who think science is a deep state hoax.
I read an article on this like 2 months ago and still don't understand what purpose the tooth has in this situation.
“The tooth is a really ideal structure for holding a focusing element in place,” Moloney said. “It’s hard, it’s rigid, it survives in poor environments, and the body accepts it because it’s part of its own.” From this article.
Alright, that's on me for not clicking and reading. Thanks for the direct info though
