It isn't a lie. Now smoking isn't exactly the leading cause of blindness (diabetes is) but it definitely increases the risk of blindness. Keep telling yourself otherwise, but the public ain't buying it.
You're like Jason from Friday the 13th, I keep killing you and you keep coming back.
Again, you are just here to pick a fight. I never said smoking, eating, drinking, sunshine, exhaust fumes or anything else doesn't increase/decrease a risk of blindness or herpes or anything else. The issue here is THE PROPAGANDA, SENSATIONALISM AND SCARE TACTICS.
