Description

This week on Knock Knock Eye, Will talks about how some cities are good at handling snow and others are just awful at it, before getting into his main topic for the day, Infectious Endophthalmitis. An infection in the eye that is so dire, that each minute it's not treated can be devastating. Will explains how this infection can happen, why it's terrible, and what you can do to treat it.
