Chances of KC in non KC eye

[新洲å°Â]

I requested them to refund back my money, which they did (S$3,200). Although it is only half of what I spent. I guess Singapore is still small enough to travel conveniently even without a car. It is still my wish to drive one.. Hai~ Haha..

* I'm not familiar with the exchange rate between Singapore Dollars and UK Pound. My estimate is one pound to 3.32 dollars.

One singapore dollar will buy 0.36 GB pounds.

We had friends in Singapore, but they have moved now to Tokyo. Ah well!

All the best

Mari kita rakyat Singapura
Sama-sama menuju bahagia
Cita-cita kita yang mulia
Berjaya Singapura

Marilah kita bersatu
Dengan semangat yang baru
Semua kita berseru
Majulah Singapura
Majulah Singapura

A high ideal for the Lion of the Sea!

Yup! That's the national anthem "Majulah Singapura" (Onward Singapore) in Malay, our national language. A pity that the composer died few weeks ago..

Yo.. Back to KC.

Are there any other types of food which are supposedly good for KC eyes? My family recommended raw red carrots (which are super bitter) and wolfsberries soup (which has an empowering stench).

I did see a report that KC was associated with a magnesium deficiency.

Mg deficiency, eh?

[Andrew MacLean]

So they say. Don't know how much credence this sourt of claim ought to be give, and I don't know whether it is possible significantly to vary mg alance by diet. If the association is genuine it may as easily be caused by the want of an enzyme that enables the body to absorb mg as with a dietary deficiencly.

I hve always eather and enjoyed pulses, nuts etc.
