Does the effect stack with, you know, other things that make you go blind?

It makes you go blind faster.

Even if it does, the 'treatment' is the same.... Quit when you need to wear glasses.. ;-)

I know he brags about his coffee and there is some volume of lore built up around it, but next time you get a chance, ask him if he's brave enough to drink mine...

Sometimes, when I really want to get crazy, I go for carrot cake. :-)

This study was done in Sweden and the glaucoma was actually caused by 2 factors, not coffee:

1. The angle of the northern sun does not let light come straight into the eye-

This causes the sunlight to always be entering the eye thru the edge of the eye lens, not the middle.

2. Men in Sweden are always looking at Swedish blondes.

This yellow light causes the eye to be shifted toward the middle of the spectrum but since the light enters the edge of the lens, this causes the eyeball to twist and shout "Glaucoma!"

I didn’t grow up in the depression, but I ate saltines and coffee when I was about 6 yrs old too. I would spread a little butter on my crackers too. Good stuff. My mother grew up in the depression, so I must have got the idea from her.
