Could a square even permanently improve vision? I suppose it depends on what exactly is wrong in the first place and how much you know about it?

Also, if I were Miranda, I would pick up on the description of Sadde’s wand as “fairly sturdy” and point out that this implies that not all wands are (hers wasn’t, I think).

If she had access to his conversation with Harry, she would notice the phrase “buying their first wands”, which I think he might actually have to respond to with something other than just “no”. Maybe “if you plan on fighting the next Dark Lord personally, then you might have a problem, but otherwise there is no need”.

Yeah, a square could do Lasik or something. It couldn't fix you if you were totally blind. Might do certain kinds of colorblindness.

No type of total blindness? It seems like some of those should be relatively easy. Although, if you were blind from birth I’m not sure it wouldn’t take a pentagon just to make your brain able to understand this new sense. I’m not sure how good brains are at doing that on their own, and I think I’ve heard contradictory information about that.

Should a Triangle be able to do something like a single-instant of a skill or... making an attack strike? The finer points of wishcoins always got vague, like could you a square or pentagon give you a "power" to do something that triangles do whenever you want? Like telekinesis that can move small things like light switches.

It does seem like pentagon magical artifacts are sometimes more powerful than hexagon powers, but that could easily be because people are wasting part of their hexes.

I think it would easily take a hex to get a matter-conjuration power, even though a square can do it at-will.

Oooh, if I could use a triangle every time I plugged in a USB cord in order to make it go in the right way, that would be cool.

I was thinking more cataracts, which according to a quick google search cause 50% of avoidable blindness, although I can’t find anything that confirms that they can actually cause total instead of just near-total blindness.

I think that could be fixed with a triangle, and I don't think you need to think too hard about it. Plus, we might be working on different definitions of blindness, if yours count then a triangle could fix blindness by turning on the lights.

I was wondering about this when I saw
without question the most beautiful human being he has ever seen.
and now it’s confirmed.

So, two questions:
  • He could have alternately mated to somebody else if he’d met them first, right?
  • Is the mother of the Edward he knows a Libby despite no Kappa not being an author of that sandbox?
