Completion of the Cross-Examination in the Case of Patient Blindness
May 26, 2026
The cross-examination of the nurse in the case of eight patients who went blind has concluded. The patients suffered from blindness after cataract surgery, and the prosecution is trying to prove that the two ophthalmologists used the same consumables, leading to infection. There were disagreements about the 'tapes' used during the surgeries. The defense argued that only two 'tapes' were used and that they weren't the cause of the transmission. The proceedings will continue with the testimony of the infectious disease specialist on Thursday.
