I Can See Clearly Now...

I can see clearly now the rain has gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that made me crash
It's going to be a bright, bright sunshiny day

On Friday, I finally got new contacts.

For the last 3 months I've been surviving on glasses that weren't the right prescription. My left eye had gotten significantly worse after the surgery, so even with my glasses, the sight in the left wasn't great. But I had to wait for my eye to heal before I got contacts.

My eye doctor had deemed November to be the month I could finally go back to contacts. I got them on Friday, and when I put them on, I was floored by the clarity of my vision. So THAT'S what it's like to see with 20/20 vision! The world was so clear, so vibrant and sharp. I was giddy. And after the eye check, my doctor actually said I was at 20/15, sharper than most.

So I breath a sigh of relief, to be able to wear contacts again. But I've gotten so used to my glasses that I keep on pushing my phantom glasses up my face. But they're not gone forever. Now that I have a pair of glasses that I'm not ashamed to wear in pulic they may come out every now and then.

But not in the near future!

Retiring the pirate patch eh? Congrats. Reminds me of me needing to make an appointment for my eye exam.

Sue - it is! Everything is so clear!

Denise - yeah. But it had nothing to do with my car accident, I swear!

Mona - Get that appointment made, pronto!
