Did Euler go Blind on the Right Eye?


Here is a portrait of Ratzinger:



Do you see anything which worries you?

It is obviously photoshopped, it is portraying him with a cigarette with sex pistols t-shirt, that is not so worrying about him.

It maybe says more of the owner of the twitter account:

And of him it says he doesn't care too much of the fake regalia of Antipope Ratzinger.

No, I mean he looks like a historic person, if you look at the parts which seem an original photo of him.

Euler. Here is an Euler portrait which looks like him:



It is from German wikipedia, and the rights are free.

Now, this is a later Euler portrait, from wikisource, also rights free:



Looks like he was one-eyed, right?

I think he was, at least part of his life:

"In August/September 1766, Euler suffered a serious fever and this combined with a cataract in his one good (left) eye led to near blindness. Undeterred, he diligently pursued his duties and had scientific papers and correspondence read to him by assistants, to whom he dictated responses to be transcribed and forwarded by them. It was also a huge help that his son, Johann, was by then secretary of the Academy. He had this cataract removed in 1771, which briefly restored some sight, until another infection left him nearly completely blind."

His one good eye was his left eye?

That means his right eye was not at all good. And if a cataract in the "one good eye" led to near blindness, either the other one - the right eye - must have already been totally blind, or it must have been near blind.

I was in German analysing his letters to a Prussian Princess. Specifically letters 58 and 59, from Sept 1760. If you are curious and if you read German, here is the link:

I was concluding about it, I was not too surprised he went blind on the right eye. Euler died too early to be one of the two in Apocalypse 19:20. But, he has a lookalike in Ratzinger. Who is still alive.

Also, he was a kind of ufologist, in his letters to Friedericke, he considered that the planets around other stars were "without doubt inhabited" - and here too he resembles Ratzinger. The latter along with his successor are debating whether to baptise extraterrestrials, if they ask for baptism ... and Euler died in St. Petersburg, the city where the Russian revolution was made "in a peaceful manner" - but not leading to peace.

Perhaps Ratzinger abdicated because the similarity to Euler worried him ...
