As I'm sure we all heard, Vinny is out for complications regarding the eye. On an earlier bombcast, he also mentioned that he was seeing spots, and Ryan alluded to his having contracted macular degeneration. Just thought this would be a good place to post our well wishes. Vinny can power through color blindness, but plain-old regular blindness might be a little tougher.

Feel Better Vinny!!
Yeah , if it is macular degeneration like they were saying on the bombcast , then there could be increasing complications over time. Hoping they found it early so they can slow it down.

Unless your only other option is the eyes from an executed psychopath. If that's the case then definitely, DEFINITELY chose the cyborg eyes." Get well soon vinny and remember, don't choose the cyborg eyes! "
Well, I hope he ISN'T reading this. I hope he's staring at a softly lit far-away mountain or something. Getting some ocular relaxation.
Yeah, after that last Bombcast I did some reading on Macular Degeneration. Shit sounds serious. I'm hoping that he can get some kind of treatment for it.
Although if he did have to get cyborg eyes and/or train in India for a few months to edit and produce videos with his other, now heightened senses, that would be okay too.
I hope it's not too serious. It sucks that the things you love (video production and games) are harming you.
