Looking to cheat on the eye chart above? Just rattle off some lyrics penned by John Lennon and you’re in business… Imagine that! Flickr user Maureen Barlin captured this example of eye chart street art in London’s East End on February 22nd, 2015. Er, dude, it’s “Gimme Some Truth”, not “Showme Some Scalp”.
Bear Back In Berlin
You’ve heard of Silverback Gorillas? Meet Symbol-back Bear! Flickr user David Curtis did just that on June 24th, 2011 while strolling the streets of Berlin, Germany. As far as being an eye chart, however, the bear scores a FAIL: even if you can see the characters, how would you describe them to an examining optometrist?
My What Big Eye Charts You Have!
The scene was eye-opening to say the least in April of 2010 at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. In addition to setting up the world’s largest eye chart, patrons visiting the “Think about your eyes week” awareness booth received information on taking care of their eyes, free gifts, and a personal greeting from a Giant Eyeball. That’s just how they roll.
The END Is In Sight
Flickr user Barney909 stumbled across this vintage eye chart on June 6th of 2010. Put your glasses on, Barney, and you might not stumble so much. Anyway, he doesn’t mention where it’s located, nor what the rest of the characters on the sign are… but maybe you’re better off not knowing what comes after the END.
