While at work we were discussing the aging process. There was some debate on which of the senses were the first to go. Hearing, eyesight, etc. A doctor walked into the store and we took the opportunity to ask someone in the medical field what they knew on the subject. He said "I suppose if you ask an ophthalmologist, he would tell you it was the eyesight that was the first to go. And if you were to ask an ear, nose, throat man, he would probably tell you it was ther hearing. However, the evidence I have is somewhat different than what they claim, since I am a urologist."
