Last chance to crack this clue which seems to be defeating all.
Answer full preamble
Pertaining to the five senses, understanding, and intelligence and sensations and their stimuli.

91. Ladybird, being aware, spotted an opportunity ! (11)
Maybe PEN. HEN, L ???

And finally

97. Minute though it is, an instrument that is 'a vision in eye surgery in the future (1,1,1,1)
Clue says (abbr.) although I suspect it may mean acronym.

I await amazement (please)

Mally, plural of phenomenon is phenomena

[mallyh]

I looked at merriam webster and free dictionaries x

[dannyk13]

They are American Mally and give American spellings.
