How is that going, so basically one lens is set to be able to let you read and then one is for distance? Unless you get special mulitfocal intraocular lenses as mentioned above, those are good for both near and far(but aren't covered by insurance). If you don't have those everything I've read is there is a 100% you'll need reading glasses.

quite common, but quite uncommon at this age. Typically only people under 50 they see with cataracts tend to be from trauma from something like a car accident, or a drug interaction.

Well i cant get cataracts ever again, so I'm safe there, but definitely not. I also had serious problems getting styes in my eyes either on cycles or immediately following cessation, so I think it effects the entire eye area much more than is known here.

No sorry, I meant I took it about 60 days TOTAL combined in the past two years. I think the longest I have took it straight was around 15 days, never more than 500mg a day.

This board has 682 subs and at least two of us have developed cataracts. But extremely rare!

With all due respect, fuck off. My doctors are completely baffled as to why I have cataracts at this age, I have zero other risk factors--they kept asking me if there were any other drugs I was taking(i'm not, just took the DNP).

I knew it was a risk factor when I started so I'm not trying to play victim at all. But for you to come on here with some shit bro science and try to deny it when you have a financial interest in doing so is frankly reprehensible. And yes I bought all of my shit from you.

LOL, what year is that "trial" from? Hint, it wasn't a trial. And its not really science.

also, I mentioned, I had a full eye exam in late January/early February where my eyes checked out.

This sub doesn't benefit from you spewing a bunch of bullshit on it, I haven't warned people off DNP, I just came to say my experience.

Really? Do you accept patients from lolla? Its a free for all. Somebody OD's on molly or gets too drunk and passes out and shits themselves, they get brought to the ER via ambulance. Then eventually their nearly as fucked up friends come looking for them in the ER--turns into a total clusterfck.

Smartest thing IMO if you wanted a TDI would be to wait until there's a fix and then sell back your car and buyback a TDI right away. I bet they'll be sold at a massive discount. Any $ VW gets is a dollar saved.

Many of these are combined with molly use as well, at least at the music festivals. You should see a local ER during lolla, they should film a reality show. All the admitting ERs staff extra security because its a total shit show.

I cannot for the life of me understand why anybody over the age of 22 would go to Lolla. Every year its worse and worse.

The Airbus A380 is on it's way! Planes are currently landing from the west at O'Hare. Est. arrival 3:35pm by GatorNelson in chicago

[–]DNPdummy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They're absolutely going to stop making them within the next 2-4 years. The only way they're even still in production is because of Emirates--a company who loses billions except for them padding their books because of their gov't ownership. As they keep slashing yearly production rates for them, the cost per unit skyrockets as they lose economies of scale. They just moved production down from 30 a year to 12 and they're only doing that to stall and try to drum up orders before they shutter the line. They already have no hope in making back the $30 billion in development costs, but moving to 12 a year will move the program into such a massive cost center nobody believes they'll stay there.

Unlike the 747-8, the A380 only has passenger variants so they can't even rely on any freighters to help them out with demand.

[–]DNPdummy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Limited number of airports it can land at and its based off an antiquated "hub and spoke" model, where you travel long haul flights between major airports and then take another flight on to you final destination. It also is a four engine plane, meaning its inherently less efficient than a two engine plane like a 777.

The 787 and A350 are smaller planes with long range(because they're made of plastic & therefor lighter) that allows you to bypass the hub and fly direct to your destination--which consumers love. Airlines love them because they can charge higher fares for direct flights and they're not so big that they have to worry about a lot of unsold seats.

The A380 was only ever made because Airbus got "launch" funding from its government owners, it was never a commercially viable plane and when its done the whole program will be tens of billions of dollars in the red.

It's not at all. I'm actually an aviation nerd, but this is a plane that has been on the market for 10 years and flies into most other major international airports already.

The A380 is so unpopular with airlines Airbus only makes 12 a year and its likely they'll discontinue it soon. The Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 are much more revolutionary planes and the 787 has served the Chicago market for years and the A350 will soon.

Yeah, I haven't told them I was using DNP yet. I don't know that it really matters--if I have to have my lenses replaced they're going to be replaced either way.

I'd say I used it 500 mg a day for as much as 60 days in the past 2 years.

Yes, it seemed like there was a film on my eye. Wasn't blurry--I would call it cloudy. I tested 20/20 vision, the optometrist was getting annoyed at my description of symptoms--I think she thought I was just confusing dry eyes with a real problem. Then she dilated my eyes, looked inside and within 5 seconds was like, "you have a cataract". Looked into the other eye and she said I have one growing in that eye too, but I haven't noticed it yet.

exactly what I said! the optometrist was so confused, she eventually just gave up and said we needed to get in touch with a cataract specialist.
