Especially convenient because you wouldn’t want to leave something like diagnosing a visual defect in the hands of a doctor, you’d rather squeeze it in between sending out text messages to your friends, right?"</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/cbtest.JPG" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/><br /><br />This has to be one of the dumbest things I have ever seen. Some companies have way too much time on their hands! :roll:

I don't know that a cellphone based eye test is the best idea. However, I did find this web based eye test pretty interesting. :lol:

Are these guys serious? Who in his/her right mind would trust a cell phone eye test?
