Clear-Eye Remedy

**Clear-Eye Remedy** is a potion that can temporarily improve bad eyesight or even blindness, though if brewed incorrectly it may lead to complete blindness instead. Other side-effects include sneezing and slightly watery eyes shortly after taking the potion. The potion itself has a smoky-grey color with pale blue swirls, a sweet, floral and light taste and a syrupy texture. The potion was invented by Elsbeth Gillina and is sold exclusively at their shop, Impeccable Potions.

## Effects

After taking the potion, people are known to get watery eyes for a certain amount of time that varies depending on the severity of one's bad eyesight, if the drinker is blind or nearly blind they may also start sneezing until the potion's effects fully set in. When they do so, the drinker's eyesight will be improved significantly and it can even temporarily negate blindness. The duration of the effects depends largely on the amount taken, and if one drinks more of the potion before the effects wear off again, the side effects won't apply this time.

Besides the potion's main use of improving one's eyesight, it can also have other positive effects such as a temporarily improved memory and concentration.

### Limitations

The potion cannot improve the eyes of a person when they already have adequate eyesight.
