The laptop type is getting fuzzier and fuzzier. Objects in the distance aren't quite as sharp as they once were especially later in the day. Cheap dollar store reading glasses have been needed to read for a number of years. It's been well over a decade since my last eye exam. Not wanting to return to that optometrist because people skills were not his strong point, I cold called one of the others here in town. They had a cancellation so I was able to see him the same day. The young doctor was personable, the staff very friendly.
The advance in technology is astounding. A couple pieces of equipment did everything from photograph my eyes to a glaucoma test to measuring the thickness of the eye wall. The picture was both creepy and amazing at the same time. My eye floated on the black screen like a close up of Mars.
Needless to say, glasses are needed.
I went out to find frames for the trifocal lenses. My distance vision is nearly perfect. It only needs some tweaking for when I am tired. The mid range should fix the fuzzy laptop and the third part is for reading. They will probably take some getting used to.
After trying on several styles of frames, the choice was between two that suited the shape of my face the best. One was a bit funky and fun, the other was rather sedate and responsible looking. Back and forth, off and on, look in the mirror again (when did I get so old?!)...did I dare? Yup. Funky won the battle.
They should be ready early next week.
Thank You, Lord, for Your provision in all things.

Hello, Susan! Eyes are the forerunners of our senses. We only have one pair, and this pair functions everyday all the time we are awake, so it is only reasonable we pay constant attention to our eyes. It was a good thing that you found an amazing optometrist. And by the looks of it, your trip went well. It’s great for having a perfect distance vision! Well, I wish you luck on adjusting to your new funky glasses!
