Chapter 1942: with translation of chapter title

1873 Aren't you feeling uncomfortable?

Zheng Ren is like a devil, tempting the patient.

Su Yun found him terribly boring on the side—what the hell is this?! Even a patient who just came for eye drops gets dragged over for a checkup; is Boss really planning to get into ophthalmology now?

Normally only interns do this; those just exposed to clinical work are curious about everything. Too bad, they don't understand anything and easily cause trouble.

Boss, how come he's acting like an intern?

But ophthalmology is indeed a lucrative field; artificial lenses—just think about the demand and profit potential.

If we could run a flagship ad after winning the Nobel Prize—Nobel laureate personally performing intraocular lens implantation!

Fifty thousand each, a hundred a day…

Su Yun's thoughts soon wandered far, far away, to the horizon.

"Well… then let's just take a look. But I'm telling you, doctor, I won't go to ophthalmology." The patient said, "I'm especially afraid of eye drops; if someone touches my eyes, I'd probably fight them."

"Let's just take a look; anyway I won't move, don't worry—I'll only move your eyelid." Zheng Ren said with a smile, putting on a harmless appearance.

The patient, half-believing and half-doubting, followed him to the treatment room.

Zheng Ren lifted the patient's eyelid; just that action took nearly a minute. The patient was extremely tense, the eyelid struggling against his hand.

Finally, under Zheng Ren's continual soothing, he managed to pry open the patient's eyelid.

A contact lens was lodged at the edge of the eyelid's cyst, clearly visible. Zheng Ren tried to remove it, but as soon as the tweezers approached, the patient screamed in fright.

"Don't be afraid." Zheng Ren comforted him.

"What are you going to do to me!" The patient hurriedly stood up, backing away far, like a little girl encountering a thug.

"Sigh." Zheng Ren had no choice.

But in the Emergency Department, you see all kinds of patients; it's nothing surprising anymore.

"I suspect all the contact lenses you've lost over the years are stuck in your eyelids." Zheng Ren said, "At least twenty or thirty."

Su Yun and Zhou Litao were both stunned.

Contact lens? Eyelid? Twenty or thirty!

That's nonsense.

"Impossible, your eyes would have to be huge!" The patient naturally didn't believe it either.

"Contact lenses are thin themselves; I'll take out the one you just lost, then you'll know." Zheng Ren said.

The patient hesitated a bit, but for some reason he ended up believing Zheng Ren's words.

Zheng Ren didn't expect that saying just one thing would make him believe it, making work much easier.

He asked with a smile: "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking that if you can find the contact lens I just lost, then maybe I can believe you." The patient spoke frankly.

"Are you… uh, right, Manager Zhou, could you please go to ophthalmology and borrow a sterile pack?" Zheng Ren said.

Zhou Litao acknowledged and turned to run.

That speed, like a wild dog let off its leash.

"Don't be afraid, it won't hurt at all—it's just removing a foreign object, and ophthalmology tools are very professional." Zheng Ren continued to soothe the patient.

But the fear welling up from deep inside couldn't be soothed by a few words.

The patient's face turned pale, his speech became a bit incoherent. He managed not to lose composure, babbling aimlessly with Zheng Ren.

Su Yun glanced at the time and said: "Boss, it's time to eat."

"A few minutes, no rush." Zheng Ren smiled at the patient hiding in the corner: "You say you've been suffering for over ten years and don't even know it?"

"I know, it's not just using eye drops."

"Just using eye drops isn't enough; I'll take out the contact lenses you've lost, then you go to ophthalmology to cut open the eyelid and find all the lenses you've lost over the years."

The patient's face turned deathly pale all at once.

Upon hearing that, Su Yun glanced at the patient and recalled many cases.

"I've seen metal inside the eye, but it was wrapped; a magnet couldn't remove it, so we had to cut it out surgically." Su Yun said.

"Um, the 3D X-ray television system has unique accuracy and practicality for intraoperative localization. Moreover, in ocular foreign body removal surgery, grid localization and Bausch localization have been proven effective Method."

The patient's face grew even whiter, like a blank sheet.

What 3D X-ray television system, what grid localization… how can thinking about this be so terrifying?

Soon Zhou Litao came running back, holding an ophthalmology incision pack.

Ophthalmology equipment is all very delicate; it can't be bulky because the eye itself is that small. Moreover, when suturing trauma, the area below the nose belongs to oral and maxillofacial surgery, while above the nose to the hairline belongs to ophthalmology.

This involves cosmetic surgery; if you go in with thick needles and thick thread, it won't look good later.

Zheng Ren put on a pair of sterile Gloves, Zhou Litao opened the incision pack, and Zheng Ren took out a small pair of tweezers.

Even the ophthalmology equipment, compared to the three smallest tweezers in Dr. Charles's instrument box, still seems somewhat clumsy.

"Lie still, it won't hurt, don't worry." Zheng Ren said.

Wearing Gloves made him look much more professional, even though he wasn't wearing a White Coat.

Zheng Ren also knew his procedure wasn't standard, but it was just an eyelid foreign body, not involving sterile procedure, so wearing a Gloves was enough.

After persuading the patient for a few more minutes, Su Yun finally got a message: Xiao Yi Ren and Chang Yue were already in the car waiting.

"Are you going to take it out or not? If not, we're leaving." Su Yun said, "What the hell is this—no payment for removing a foreign object, and we still have to beg you?"

The patient was shouted at, and then he finally lay down obediently.

"Doctor, be gentle." He still didn't forget to ask Zheng Ren for that.

"Are you married? Does it tire you out when you go shopping with your wife?" Zheng Ren placed his hand on his eyelid and asked softly.

"Married, and shopping with my wife is tiring; if my health is bad, I can't keep going." The patient chattered.

"All right." Zheng Ren then said.

"Ah?" The patient looked at him in surprise.

There was no pain as imagined; just flipped the eyelid a bit, and took it out while I was speaking?

Everyone says doctors are the worst, always saying things to distract attention, then operating while you're not paying attention.

As a child it was getting shots; now it's removing foreign objects.

"Here, this is your contact lens; you can see that the lens that fell on your eyelid a while ago hasn't been completely covered." Zheng Ren said: "Go to the ophthalmology department for hospitalization, then to the Operating Room to cut."

"……"

"If you don't cut it, who knows what will happen from repeated stimulation later." Zheng Ren finally said a vague sentence, basically threatening this timid patient.

After saying that, he took off his Gloves, "Are you planning to keep the contact lens?"

"Um... I'll keep it for now to see."

"All right, Manager Zhou, then I'm leaving." Zheng Ren and Zhou Litao exchanged greetings, then turned and left.
