Glasses

Good Bye Glasses!

I donated all these relics to the lions club.

I've worn glasses since the 2nd grade. I was so excited to get my rad purple plastic glasses. However by the second day of wearing them I hated them. All through school I had a love hate relationship with them. None of my 3 sisters wore glasses so it became something that separated me from them. Glasses really became a part of my identity. I really rocked the Nerd Chic look. My eye sight has gotten progressively worse and my glasses were really turning into coke bottles! I finally got fed up with not being able to see in the shower. So this Friday I went under the laser. I am really happy I had lasiks! My eyes are still a little sensitive. I can't stare at a computer screen for long or read. This should pass soon I hope. Its crazy how easy it was. I kinda wish I'd done it years ago.

  1. Was it scary, the procedure? I want to get it done, so bad... My eyesight is getting worse too, I was in a restaurant the other day and was complaining to a friend about the poor print quality on the menu and he laughed at me and sai, "hold it out further" which helped.. Time to get Lasik!

  2. Jason...It really takes mere minutes and then its over. The recovery time is really 1 day. You just have to sleep it off. I can't swim or go in the ocean for 2 weeks but that's not so bad. You should look into it. I'd start asking around and find a place you trust.
