Two days later:
It was immensely hot that day indeed. I had to cruise quite a few pharmacies to get the prescribed eye medicines. That was not easy, but I succeeded and I owe my gratitude to the knee doctor who directed me to the two near his surgery. I'd have never thought of going there. After the treatment, I'd have taken a tram to the centre and tried there. The second of the two looked like a popular one, the queue was enormous. No way I was going to stand at the end without finding out they had what I was prescribed. I went to the front of the queue which then separated as the lucky ones distributed themselves to the next of the three or four available windows. I waited till one of the customers finishes their purchase and as I was to hand in the prescription, the pharmacist closed the window finishing his work. Somehow, I persuaded him to devote one more minute and check if the drops were in stock. They were! Moreover, he took pity of a poor being on crutches and with sore eyes, and sold me the medicine. Nobody in the queue protested and I thanked nicely on leaving the place. But not the pharmacy, I'd have never taken these two pictures on the way:
Next I caught the tram and got off near Planty:
Planty is a green belt surrounding the Old Town that replaced the Medieval city walls demolished in the early 19th century. My energy lasted only till the nearest open air cafe:

The sun was ideal to take a picture overlooking St Jana Street from the elevated entrance to the Piarists' Church (Kościół Pijarów):
