I believe old sailors referred to this as an “around the world Job”.

It doesn't matter what color their eyes are, either...

Saliva contains white blood cells, glycoproteins, enzymes, and antimicrobial agents such as secretory IgA and lysozyme. The most common forms of blindness in the emirates are because of cataract, trachomatous corneal opacities, and glaucoma. Cataracts are caused by either clumps of protein or yellow-brown pigment deposited in the lens reducing the transmission of light to the retina at the back of the eye. Corneal opacity is caused by scarring or clouding of the cornea. Glaucoma is caused by damage to the optic nerve. In any event, this woman might have saliva that contains an unusual blend of components that may actually help blindness. White blood cells come in five types: neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes. Glycoproteins play a role in cellcell interactions, so may be an important part of the situation. Enzymes α-amylase (EC3.2.1.1), or ptyalin, digests starch. Lingual lipase only functions in acidic environments. Kallikrein is capable of cleaving peptide bonds in proteins. Antibacterial compounds (thiocyanate, hydrogen peroxide, and secretory immunoglobulin A). The bottom line is saliva is quite complex, so it would be very helpful if they could analyze her saliva to see if it has any uniquely helpful qualities.

Did I misread THAT headline.
I honestly thought she was licking her own.
She must have been very popular at the Womens(?) March last Sat.
