I'm in serious need of a new prescription though. I'm nearsighted. Lately I have to either have my contacts in or glasses. I prefer the contacts. I've always been self conscious having to wear a hearing aid I didn't want to be seen with glasses as well. Now a days it doesn't matter. <br><br>I worry more now about my eyes than ever before, in essence they get more strained as they are my ears too. I have to be able to read the close captioning on the tv as well. Ugh..Yeah I'll be making an appointment soon.

I ...I had Lasik 7 years ago, and it was wonderful. I say "was" because I was 42 a the time and due to my age, nothing was guaranteed (read: I was old[er]), the corneas don't flex as much...blah blah blah. After wearing glasses since 3rd grade, contacts since soph year in high school...wearing no eye paraphenalia was heaven! It started with readers for the close up stuff, then bi-focals 2 years ago, this year I had to go to tri-focals. My eyes are no where near as bad as pre-Lasik, but they are getting progressively worse. I agree, there isn't enough hard evidence on the long term. I wonder how much of this has to do with us staring at computer screens all day! My son's allergist told him that computer users blink 3 times less than the normal person not staring at a screen, and he has to use artificial tears to keep his eyes moist. Glasses are pricey!<br>xoxo ~MyraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098209577865673818.post-36197142629544449202008-05-01T12:02:00.000-07:002008-05-01T12:02:00.000-07:00I'm due for an eye exam.

Hope your pupils are all back to normal now! lol I had to laugh at you talking to your neighbor with your eyes like that. And speaking of which, $7,000 worth of stuff?? Good grief! That sounds like it was maybe someone who knows him and knew what he had in that garage!<br>Lori<br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
