EXPIRED CONTACT LENSES: Wife of sailor who jumped off USS Lincoln says he worried about vision

In her exclusive interview with the wife of a sailor who jumped off the USS Abraham Lincoln last week, Priya Sridhar learned that the sailor's prescription contact lenses had expired and that he was having trouble seeing as he worked on helicopters on the flight deck.

“Every single time he would make a mistake, they would yell at him, and he would get into a lot of trouble,” his wife told Priya. “He would explain to them that he can't see because his prescription was expired, but they still allowed him to work.”
