The pt. was re-admitted to the nursing home and he had cataracts listed as one of his routine diagnosis. The Dr. decided that he thought the pt. obtained them from being impacted.
Hmmm... All that pressure in the rectum did it? Maybe that's what causes, and forgive my lack of spelling, exophthalmus- the condition associated with a thyroid imbalance that causes the eyes to "bug out"

While readmitting a pt. back from the hospital, one Dr. wrote the pt. had "Cataracts" - probably caused from an impaction.
