“So here’s the thing…

D.O.C.

Filed under: Uncategorized — June 24, 2006 @ 10:51 am

I go in at 2:40pm today to have my contacts checked and see if I’ll be keeping these permanently. It’s been hard to tell. I was outside the other night at dusk talking with my neighbor and the block seemed kinda hazy to me as I looked around. (Incidentally, she actually didn’t recognize me at first! Go figure!) I don’t know if the contacts were effecting my night vision or if it was just all in my head. But I also seem to be squinting at the t.v. most of the time. My glasses still feel more comfortable or “normal” to me. The good thing is that the contacts do feel at least physically comfortable. They haven’t been bothering my eyes at all… just feels like my vision isn’t as good as it should be. But I guess that’s what these check-ups are for…  I think once I find the right prescription, I’ll really like these. I never realized just how limited your peripheral vision is in glasses.

    I had the same experience with my contacts…I couldn’t see as well as with my glasses so I didn’t like wearing them.

    Neither of you know what you’re talking about. Once you get used to contacts, glasses will feel very limiting to you. I get headaches if I wear my glasses for too long.

    And I say “neither of you know what you’re talking about” with love, of course. ;)
