Question 1 of 10
1. As you open up your practice for the day a young woman and a respectable looking man walk in, asking for your help. The woman, named Emma, describes a difference in the pupils, but as you're motioning for her to sit down in the chair she merely exclaims "Oh no, it's not in mine, it's 'In His Eyes' the changes have happened!". You turn towards the man to ask for his name, but he's unable to give you a straight answer. What does this man call himself? Hint


Question 2 of 10
2. Your next patient for the day is a silent movie star, who is so upset and over-dramatic that you can't make sense of what's troubling her. When she's finally calmed down enough to tell you her problem, she sobs "I'm afraid that I've ruined my chances of a great comeback "With One Look" at the solar eclipse yesterday!". After a quick examination you tell her that she just needs to go home to ________ and rest. Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. You're a bit hesitant seeing the next patient coming in through the door, accompanied by his mother. It doesn't have anything to do with the fact that he's pretty ugly; no, these people don't appear to be human at all! "Oh doctor, can't you at least take a "Look At Him", please?", the mother begs you, but you have to show them the door. On the way out the boy gives you a rather strange farewell; what is he saying? Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. As soon as you've shown mother and son the way out, a middle-aged couple comes in through your door. You turn to the woman but she shakes her head and says "Oh, "Don't Look at Me", I don't have any eye problems. It's "In Buddy's Eyes" something strange is going on." You take a look at the man and after a thorough examination you confirm that he has keratitis. You prescribe eye-drops to him and make a new appointment to follow up the condition. As the couple is leaving you finally remember where you've seen them before; they're show people! But what show was it again? Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. Kate is your next patient for the day and she's complaining about pain in her eyes, as well as visual loss. You ask her to sit down and tell her that "I'm going to see if there's anything wrong with your eyes, so "Look At Me Now" and we'll sort this out in no time." You determine that she's got scleritis and that she's lucky it isn't a severe case. You prescribe a medication and an eye solution and explain to her what she must do to treat the scleritis. She seems anxious to get out of the office and afterwards you learn that she couldn't wait to get back to _____________. Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. Kate is hardly out the door before an African-American couple comes in. The man is clearly upset and is rambling on about something that sounds like "Sarah Brown Eyes", but you can't make out what he really means. You turn your attention to the woman instead and see that she has iritis. You can quickly calm the man and woman down and prescribe eye drops to her, and as they're leaving you can hear the man humming something, but what does it remind you of? Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. One of your former patients, a ship designer, is coming in for a check-up and it turns out that there's nothing wrong with "Mr. Andrews' Vision". He is relieved that he'll be able to go back to __________ without having to worry about anything, but you can't help but feel that there's a disaster looming in the future for him. Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. A pale young man is your next patient, and you ask him to sit down so you can examine him. He tells you that you have to draw the blinders first, since he's sensitive to sunlight. When that's been done you ask him why he's come to you and he replies "It's so strange, for a few days now I've been seeing dots "Right Before My Eyes" and they won't go away!" You start the examination and try to put the man at ease with some small-talk, when you find out his rather odd name; what does he call himself? Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. A hunchbacked man and his wife are the next people to come into your office, but you don't have any time to open your mouth before the man says "Doctor, could you please take a look at "Lily's Eyes"? She's experienced blurry vision as of late." You can soon confirm that the wife has a cataract in her left eye and schedule her for surgery in about three weeks. The couple bids you farewell, but before they leave you overhear them talking about going home to _____________. Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. At the end of the day you can't help but feeling tired after having taken care of so many patients. You consider taking a few days off to visit your sister Nellie, but realise that you have too many appointments scheduled for this week and you'd be "A Cockeyed Optimist" if you thought you'd be able to re-schedule them all. You can only wish that you'll have time to do it soon, but your thoughts still linger with Nellie. Where does Nellie live? Hint
