Dana Tift Learns to See Clearly with Painted Contacts

Dana Tift of Silverdale Washington, born without irises due to nystagmus, can now see with new fitted contact lenses after years of sunglasses. Ophthalmologist Dr Carl Alleger adjusted tiny plastic disks and pigmenting tests, replacing false black irises with a tinted, nearly clear pair. The breakthrough followed three years of fitting and cost a fortune, transforming daily vision and enabling her to look straight ahead with clarity. Kentucky Center Hosts 3 Million Visitors.
