My close up vision is getting bad, but that’s to be expected. Reading glasses fix that.
However, my distance vision seems to be improving! It is so weird.
I have worn glasses since 4th grade. My prescription changed about every 6 months. At the pool I’d have to memorize the colors and the patterns on my friend’s bathing suits so I could recognize them if they were more than 5 feet away.
I got contacts my Sr. year, which stopped the astigmatism, but by then I was legally blind.
I got lasik surgery in 1999, when I was about 37. That was great! But eventually I started wearing glasses again, of a very low strength, to get the maximum vision I could. They spent a lot of the time on my head, though, because I couldn’t see up close or medium distance with them.
About a week ago I put on my glasses to watch TV…and the prescription was obviously too strong! It gave me a head ache. If put them on to drive, same thing. It is so weird. It is so weird to drive without my glasses. It just happened literally over night.
About the same time my close up vision, like, trying to read small print went to hell even more, but that’s no biggie.

What is going on? Yes, I’ll talk to a doc next time I’m around one, and I have vision checks periodically.

I love it, but it’s very strange.

Do we get extra points for not asking a trump question?
