According to The People's Almanac, a fellow member of the HOuse  of Burgess described George Washington as about 6ft 2in, sinewy and  strong, wore size 13 boots, and had sâ¦andy colored hair and cool,  steady, blue-gray  eyes. The blue eyes can be seen if you ever get up close  to one of his portraits.
This is called a vitreous detachment, which in most cases is not sight-threatening and requires no treatment. However, a sudden increase in floaters, possibly accompanied by light flashes or peripheral (side) vision loss, could indicate a retinal detachment. A retinal detachment occurs when any part of the retina, the eye's light-sensitive tissue, is lifted or pulled from its normal position at the back wall of the eye.
A detached retina occurs when the retina is pulled away from its normal position in the back of the eye. The retina sends visual images to the brain through the optic nerve. When detachment occurs, vision is blurred.A detached retina is a serious problem that can cause blindness unless it is treated.The retina normally lies smoothly and firmly against the inside back wall of the eyeball and functions much like the film in the back of a camera.hen detachment occurs, vision is blurred.
