So… on the 9th I will be taking out my contact lenses for 5 days before seeing a specialist to see if I qualify for eye surgery. I am – 11 in both eyes, and because of the shape of my eyes, I can only have contacts that work to a certain degree.
This is how I see with them in: This is how I see with out them in:
So, naturally the five days being completely dependent on anyone is freaking me out. I will not be able to use my laptop, run my own bath, etc… see who’s messaging or calling me on my phone.. etc. So… I will be gone for a few days. But its all good… at least I will know what my options are.
I may pop in tomorrow but that will be the last till the 15th.
On the 9th I also get the results of the biopsies taken – so for those that have sent me well wishes, I am grateful. Thank you for the kindness and support.
Much appreciated.
Good luck! I’d hate to only be able to see to a certain degree with contacts. Though I prefer glasses, contacts always seem clearer to me.

Thank you, friend 🙂 I cant wear glasses. I don’t know why they have been not been able to get that right.

My prescription (I’m like -8 point something, and -9.75) glasses are so thick they have to get like specially done so they aren’t as thick. They’d be so uncomfortable otherwise.

Yeah… they did make me a pair, and they were very thick and that was even after they apparently thinned them down. But when I wore them I couldn’t see a thing and I got instant migraine type headaches, so I tossed them. They weren’t something I was just going to be able to get used to… so yeah. No glasses. But at least you prefer your glasses. My one eye is shaped like a rugby ball, so there is only so much they can do with contacts.

Let’s hope Lasik Surgery works out for you! I’m tempted to get it.

You should investigate. I cant even imagine what it would be like to see clearly. I have been this ‘blind’ since I was a small girl… so I don’t even know … what it would be like.

I should but I’m afraid to make that commitment as my eyesight gets worse by the year. But I bet it will be remarkable.

No harm in investigating?? Thats all I am going for now…. to see what my options are. No commitment needs to be made until you have gathered all of your information.

There’s an option available whereby the doctor installs a permanent corrective lens into your eye, just in front of your biological lens. Unfortunately, it costs an arm and a leg and your firstborn. I tried for it, but Discovery won’t pay because it’s considered “cosmetic surgery”.
