There is no contradiction as to the question of the loss of the sight of the eye and the only evidence as to medical service and hospital aid, given to claimant amounted to $1,098.00.\nAs this court views the law, the claimant could only be properly allowed $15.00 per week and for 120 weeks, making a total of $1,800.00.\nTherefore, this court recommends that claimant be allowed $2,898.00.",
