Must have eaten my carrots

[msmemory_archive]

Eyes all good. New prescription obtained, so I can replace the scratched up lenses in my present glasses. (Actually one eye is .25 *improved* this time out, so now both eyes match!) Bifocals still extremely optional - Dr. Smith said I could try them if I wanted, but she didn't think them necessary. Yet. Now I am just waiting out the blurriness and light sensitivity caused by the dilation eyedrops. Later this week, when I can see normally again, I'll go pick out a new pair of frames, or maybe two if they're on sale.

I don't recall the web site that had the super-cheap glasses, but you may want to look for it.

Your check up had a very similar result to my recent appointment. The tide of nearsightedness that has been flowing in all my life has finally turned and is now flowing out. My prescription improved slightly and bifocals were proposed but at this point were optional. I chose not to get them as yet.

Good Job!

My appointments have been similar for a couple of years now - my distance vision and astigmatism have not changed, but I am wearing my 3rd pair of bifocals - mine are "no line" because I am too vain for anything else. When you finally get there, I recommend trying them at a place that will allow you to "exchange" them if they don't work for you.

I've talked to several people who have trouble wearing the lineless...

I also have separate reading glasses for close work - beading, sewing and the like.
