Default Blind man gets sight back after doctor puts his son's tooth into his eye.

http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/afp/08022...health_offbeat

Very interesting story to say the least. 57 year old man became blind 2 years ago during an explosion and doctor's recently did surgery on him by taking his son's tooth and putting it into his eye and he can now see again.

Wow, they said this procedure has been performed since the 1960's? I myself have never heard of it.
