In recent months, my eyes have been giving me problems. I've found they're tired all the time, watering and in the past month, I've had a really annoying lower-lid eye twitch! That last one, I thought was from stress, but I went to my optometrist and he told me it was from not having the right lenses for reading and computer work.
He had a good look at my eyes and nodded, yep, I needed new reading glasses. I told him that I love the frames I've got, and to keep them, but the lenses were to be upgraded. He said it's good I love the frames of my Ginsberg ones.
He asked me what I've been reading and I told him 'Born To Run' by Bruce Springsteen, and he said that it must be a great read, I agreed, and said it'll be a better read once I get my glasses sorted.
The best thing is that I don't need driving glasses - yet - and he filled out my medical certificate for me while I was there. I told him that I bought myself some Cancer Council polarised sunglasses for Christmas, and he said that they're the best ones - and asked if I bought black ones or brown ones; and I said brown. He told me it takes time to get accustomed to the brown lenses, but they're the better ones for us as they're less strain on our eye sight.
So, in about a week or so, I'll have new lenses in my glasses, a new pair of computer glasses, still have my Ginsberg cats eye glasses and have a lens upgrade on both... great! I can't wait to get back into 'Born To Run'; I'll be reading that book a lot faster than before.
Do you wear glasses? Until my next post, happy reading!
