Abstract
6-6-2020 was a landmark date for the ophthalmology community, not only because of the normal visual acuity connotation of 6/6 and 20/20, but because it genuinely reflects every ophthalmologist's dream to bring back perfect vision for every patient. The Covid-19 pandemic had forced ophthalmologists to "refuse to operate" albeit for a short period. This narrative describes how, during a telemedicine call, a surgeon experienced the distress of refusing to operate on a mature cataract. It reveals the trauma caused by the disordered goals of eye care during the pandemic, when elective procedures were abandoned and only emergency services were provided.
