So....very....tired....
Yesterday I was told that we'd be leaving for verious things today. Stupid me, I didn't even attempt to sleep until 3-4ish, and didn't actually sleep until closer to 5AM. I was awoken at 7 were I was informed that we'd be paying a visit to the eye specialist to have eyes checked and get new glasses frames, since I'm in despirate need of them. A partucally broken nose piece is one notification to this, for I belive I have a small unnoticeable scar on the right side of my nose.
My trip to said doctor wasn't bad, though it could have been more plesent had I not been sleep deprived. When they told me to look at the ballon on one of the machines, I couldn't help but not blink more often that I usually do. This was caused from the lack of sleep since you tend to blink more often in such a state. I won't even tell you how it went with the machine that blows air into one's eye-- lets just say, I feel very sorry for the nice patient ladies that instucted me to stare that the green light. When I finally was called to see the doctor, I explained to her the situation on how most of this checkup was on the part of my grandmother whom is a "worry wort" as she put it, and of course the frames that needed replacing. To my surprise, I had a check up exactally one year ago, but just off by a few days.
After flipping lenses around, asking me which one looks better, and shining light into my eyes, asking me to stare into verious objects, I was found to have improved vision. Only by a little, but this was quite surprising to me, specially since I'm a major computer user, which surprised her to hear it since she mintioned how my eyesight might actually improve unless I have a job on computers or something like that. I explained to her that I try to keep my monitor brightness and settings set to low to prevent eye strain, and help keep my nightvision more intact as well as my sight later on. I know that staring at a screen is bad for you, but I do at least try to protect my eyes better, even if it is only a little. I also found out that my sister who also got a check up had also improved vision. Also a computer user, so apparentally, "whatever they're doing, it's the right thing" the doctor commented as she handed me my perscription for my frames.
So let this be a lession to you. If you do plan on working on a computer, set your settings lower. I've found that I do have less eye strains, even at night.
Oh and to all who care, my frames are very shiny, and have stones on the sides X3. Excuse the long post, I felt like telling a story today. I'll get those drawings up later when I don't feel so much like deadweight.
