Prison Pulse Report

I have a detached retina in my left eye and thus, for the last two months, I have lost my sight. I have gone to sick call, complaining that my face and head hurt as a result. They won’t give me any pain medication or other treatment..They keep saying we don’t have an eye doctor here to see me,.so there’s nothing they can do.They are right;; we haven’t had an eye doctor here to examine prisoners in more than a year. We are walking around  with -taped-up glasses or old prescriptions. But we cant get a new pair glasses,
