Looking at the picture above, and reading about how quickly it came apart, I'm wondering
if a simple temperature cycle of freezing to summer sun would just cause the two
pieces of glass to separate quickly and easily.....?

For example, store the tube in a shed or cold car port for a few months in winter, then
as summer comes around, put it in the sun on a not so hot day, and see what happens....

We have all seen sets on CL - some with really bad separation, and some not..
Maybe storage temps, long term have something to do with the progression
of the cataract.....? And maybe a season of extremes will do a lot of the
separation work for us, and do it safer.... Like we don't have to be near it....
