Still not blind... yet
Sep. 13th, 2008 01:25 pmJust got back from the eye doc. Apparently my eyes are nowhere NEAR as improved as they should be. Also my eyes are swollen which, well, no wonder they hurt.
I'm off contacts for the weekend and I have medicated drops that I'm supposed to use every four hours ("If you wake up in the middle of the night? Put the drops in.") I go back on Monday morning to see how I'm doing.
In the meanwhile I'm here with my blurry vision and, other than a haircut in 40 min, not many plans for the weekend.
Let us all learn from this cautionary tale about overwearing one's contacts, and also not updating one's glasses prescription on a regular basis.
(I I asled about updating my glasses and just letting me use those for a while but he said that due to my eyes being swollen there wasn't a way to give me a good prescription - at least one that would still apply once the swelling went away. My best bet is for me to just make it through the weekend and hopefully by Monday my eyes will be recovreed enough to get me on the right track again.)
