"Vision loss" sounds so passive. They knew he had a problem with clawing at his eyes, told his parents they could handle that, then let him (not quite literally, but probably would have gotten there if not for parental intervention) claw his own eyes out.
Growing up in New Jersey, where we had Wawa everywhere, 7-Eleven was the "dirt convenience store" like how some towns back then had the good mall and the dirt mall. I was shocked when I moved to another state and found out that 7-Eleven was considered the good convenience store.
I spent a bit of time living in Japan, and to this day, years later, I still frequently dream of visiting Japan and one of my top priorities being going to kombini (convenience stores). They're amazing. I hope 7-Eleven is able to transform the convenience store experience in the US into a kombini experience.
No taking it out early if you're disabled or critically ill, huh? That's pretty shitty.
