I...it seems...am cured! Well that is what colleagues and friends may think towards the absence of my glasses! I am in actual fact wearing contact lenses! Not so much wearing, more as sticking them to my eyeball in blind hope that they will stay in! (Blind hope...eh...did you see what I did there? no?...never mind) I took the great step about a week ago when I went for my contact lense trial and assessment, it sounds oh so official when really they just teach you how to stick clear, plastic flying saucers in your eyes! I thought the optician was going to let me put them in but instead, all of a sudden, he told me to turn my head to his direction...
....before I knew it he had his fingers round my eye and his other hand poised like a crabs pincer! "Now...you will feel something rather wet in your eye in a moment...look left". POKE! AAH! "Is it in?"....."No...can you see?"....."No"..."Well there is your clue!" After 5 attempts I had a sore eye and what felt like a crash landed flying saucer on my eyeball! The optician leaned in again, "Now for the right eye..."..."OH GOD!!!"
I fianlly got them in, and out, and in again...and then out...left the opticians, and put them in....got home....and took them out....my eyes did not thank me! I am sort of getting used to it, but I purchased a pair of olive green, clearance, men's geek glasses....just in case!
