i wrote 4.5 pages on the 7 marker. all i wrote about was what the devices do in terms of stimuli and then what impact that has on society.

I cant remember if I wrote 3 or 4 pages, probably 3 and a bit but I spoke about cataracts with the intraocular lens, cochlear implants and hearing aids and how they impact on society. Like with the cataract surgery it extends the lifespan and contributes to quality of life etc. blah blah blah

this question was great because it was so open. i wrote about myopeia, hyperopeia, cataracts for eye sight. for the ear i wrote about hearing aids and the coclea impants and i also wrote about the electronic device that allows people to speak with there vocal chords are stuffed ( i got this cause i remembered it from south park!:p) i wrote so much for the option that i had to use 2 books
