got my new glasses

[cornerofmadness]

And I don't have glaucoma. It read high last time but it's perfectly normal. He figured I tensed up on the stupid puff of air one.

As for the new glasses...I don't love them. They are pretty. However, they are like having a ton sitting on my nose. They are SO heavy. I did get the lightweight polycarbs but not the super duper lightweights since it was more than my insurance pays for and let's face it, glasses suck hard anyhow. I never wear them so it's a waste.

But the real reason i don't love them is they're so damn tiny. I have NO peripheral vision. It's a joy having to turn your head majorly to merge onto a highway. Thank god for contacts.

Barry had the same problem when he got glasses time before last - they were so small he couldn't see down (on stairs he has to take innumerable times a day) or off to the side. So his new pair (that I hate) are a lot bigger and kind of remind me of what they wore in the 70s. At certain times, I flash back to my DAD. But, he can see which is the important thing.

(and YAY no glaucoma!)

that was it. I could wear the HUGE glasses circa 1985 that have come back in style or these tiny things. Since i rarely wear them I opted for tiny
