And since...Ooh, Kelly, those glasses are adorable!<br /><br />And since I DID just get Lasik done, I can't really comment about spending insane amounts of money at the eye doctor. On the bright side, I can now see EVERYTHING, both near (not a problem before) and far (categorized as everything more than a foot away-totally a problem before). But again, it was a slight more intensive experience than I would've expected, and it took three months to fully heal. So, you know, trade offs. Of course, I now have 20/15 vision in both eyes. 20/10 if I squint slightly.<br /><br />That said, I did throw my hip out and have been limping a little. Even though I'm 28, and not 88. I also got annoyed at some kids on my lawn. So there's that. :)Elizabeth Ryannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706539983177924875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445891270175343909.post-88130774514472455842011-01-24T13:55:28.387-06:002011-01-24T13:55:28.387-06:00I recently had my annual eye exam.

He said at my age, I would only be trading one set of glasses for another. He's amazed I don't need reading glasses yet. No, I did not like being called old, either! ;) But I guess I appreciated his honesty, and saving me $$$.

The only thing I can comfortably do without glasses is drive and watch TV or a movie.<br /><br />I feel your pain. But I love the classes. Most stylish. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849370947985905108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445891270175343909.post-44551427659703034982011-01-24T08:44:30.832-06:002011-01-24T08:44:30.832-06:00i pretty much only wear glasses when looking at th...i pretty much only wear glasses when looking at the computer, which means i leave them at work. imagine my angst when in the middle of a full weekend of writing, i realized my glasses were at work. i soldiered on, but i have a few more wrinkles around the eyes from all that squinting.abby mumfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15945527585028871186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445891270175343909.post-11270783513812552682011-01-24T08:02:20.130-06:002011-01-24T08:02:20.130-06:00I had an astigmatism all my life and wore the most...I had an astigmatism all my life and wore the most outrageous glasses forever. (Gotta love Sally Jesse Raphael for that!) Then last year the doc told me I needed bifocals. Yeah, the grandma kind - no progressive lenses for me. But I am old now, so I guess it fits. I'm even thinking of getting one of those chains the old ladies wear so they can hang their glasses around their necks.Anne Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816355522284492131noreply@blogger.com
