Fun Facts

Fun Facts

  • Newborns don’t produce tears. They make crying sounds, but tears don’t start flowing until they are about 4-13 weeks old.
  • The eye heals quickly. With proper care, it only takes about 48 hours for the eye to repair a corneal scratch.
  • It is impossible to sneeze with your eyes open.
  • 80% of vision problems worldwide are avoidable or even curable.
  • All babies are color blind when they are born.
  • Each eye has a small blind spot in the back of the retina where the optic nerve attaches. This hole in your vision isn’t noticed because your eyes work together to fill in each other’s blind spot.
  • Your eyes always remain the same size from birth, but your ears and nose will never stop growing.
  • Doctors have yet to find a way to transplant an eyeball. The optic nerve that connects the eye to the brain is too sensitive to reconstruct successfully.
  • People say “in the blink of an eye” because it’s the fastest muscle in the body.
  • Eyes are comprised of over 2 million working parts to make them fully functional
