    What is Saint Lucy of Syracuse's Patronage?

    Question #58201. Asked by princess9.

    Well, since she had her eyes ripped out (makes for very interesting paintings, believe me), she is the patron saint of blind people, people with eye diseases, glaziers, and writers (naturally), among others.

    And she's the patron of cutlers. Interesting, considering how she was eventually killed.
