eye doctors...

so i had the pleasure of being voluntarily blinded today. i love that the people who check your eyes have this tendency to blind you in the process of determining if you are or are not blind. a couple of hours later and my pupils are still the size of dinner plates, but at least i can see well enough to type. the funny thing was it didn't effect my far vision at all. i could see and read things far away without problem. but ask me to focus on anything closer than a couple of yards and it was painful. i mean do they really have to kill your focusing system to make sure you are ok?

well i get my perscription and they boost the magnification on my near sight. i still have 20/20 vision, but my near vision is getting worse. so the paper reads (+0.75 +0.75 -0.25x140) and i am thinking, "what is theis -0.25x140?" well, you guessed it, i have developed an astigmatism in my left eye. i can pretty much count on it going downhill from here. oh well, at least i can pull off wearing glasses (which i don't have to do all the time right now). i am what you would call a astigmatic hyperopne. heh, i have been called worse.
