A Heart Attack Or Go Blind: You choose

Have you ever been told that taking an aspirin a day is the cure for not having a heart attack? I came across an article from Reuters saying,
"Seniors who take aspirin daily are twice as likely to have late stage macular degeneration, an age-related loss of vision, than people who never take the pain reliever, according to a new study. The data do not show that aspirin causes vision loss. But the findings, published in Opthalmology, are of concern if aspirin somehow exacerbates the eye disorder, given how many seniors take it daily for heart disease".
We're damned if we do and damned if we don't. We're caught between a rock and a hard place. We're sometimes poison and sometimes pie. We're getting damned old and who cares what we do as long as we're having a good time. So there!
