for the past 6 months my eyesight has been crap. i couldn't see the tv, i couldn't read signs- i couldn't even read the aisle signs at the grocery store without squinting. i've spent this whole time squinting and pretending to see whatever jeff or the people at work were looking at. people were starting to make fun of how close i sat to my computer screen :(
i didn't understand why my eyesight had suddenly tanked- i mean, they've always been horrible, but that was all usually fixed with contacts and glasses!
after i went in to the doctor again, i found out that apparently my eyes are so bad that my brand of contacts (the one my eye doctor's office has a contract with) didn't make a prescription in my power- so the last time i had gone in to get my eyes checked she had just given me the lower power without telling me bc she didn't want to put in a special order and charge me extra for a special brand. oh gee thanks. i don't know about you, but i really don't mind paying to be able to see. and i don't appreciate my doctor giving me the wrong prescription because she didn't want to use a "brand out of contract"
but anyways.....
to cut this long boring story about my eyes short, i pretty much demanded she order me the specialized contacts in my prescription- and let me tell you- not having to squint at everything is AMAZING! i walked out of the office and was amazed at all of the detail everywhere! like- i could see every single blade of grass- or all of the leaves on a tree! i felt like a superhero must feel when they first turn into a superhero and all of there senses are heightened.
moral of this story.
1. i'm getting a new eye doctor
2. don't wait 6 months when it comes to being able to see- being able to see clearly is awesome.
it's all good now. i just can't stop commenting on blades of grass and street signs
