She said he had an <br />eye exam on -June 15th and the left eye, which is the one in question, is <br />now at 20/40. <br />Mr. Thompson: Correct. <br />Mr. Wendt: Now, since the surgery is only been done, and is still <br />healing, I understand, she claims that by two weeks from now, or next <br />Tuesday, it will be correctable and that eye is now moving up and will <br />be in the 20/30 range. <br />Mr. Stroh: What's the right eye? <br />Mr. Wendt: The right eye is 20/25 which is in the range now. <br />She claims that eventually both eyes, as the healing takes place, and I <br />only go by what she was telling me, I did not talk to the doctor, she is <br />apparently some sort of office manager. <br />Mr. Thompson: She is his assistant. <br />Mr. Wendt: She said eventually as the healing takes place it will be <br />almost both eyes working together will be 20/20. <br />Mrs. Bahas: So, we're talking on a time frame here, is that correct? <br />Mr. Wendt: We're talking a time frame. <br />Mrs. Bahas: OK <br />Mr. Wendt: She said she would send us a letter .. <br />Mrs. Bahas: Substantiating that? <br />Mr. Wendt: After the examination. <br />Mrs. Bahas: OK <br />Mr. Wendt: You see this changes the picture totally.

The <br />question is when he went in for this to be interviewed, or whatever, are <br />they saying then at that particular point in time he did not qualify <br />based on their qualification at that point in time? <br />Mr. Wendt: It is a sticky situation. <br />Mr. Stroh: Does he have to qualify at the time he took the examination, <br />or does he have to qualify at the time the position is open? <br />Mrs. Bahas: I think the question here is - were you aware of the exact <br />measurements for qualification at the time you took the test, or at the <br />time you took the interview." <br />Mr. Thompson: I had no idea what they were. I assume as I progressed <br />along someone would have noticed my glasses were so thick—someone would <br />have noticed.. <br />Mrs. Bahas: The problem being - he had the option of being passed over <br />for this first interview process. OK? What were you on - you were <br />being interviewed for which vacancy - for the first vacancy - or do you <br />know? <br />You don't really know, that's the other question.
