Glasses
Late this morning I picked up my new glasses, pictured right. They didn’t feel right at first, but then, new glasses never do. You have to get adjusted to them. Things may look weird or distorted as your brain and eyes get used to the new view. However, my new glasses don’t normally make me feel nauseous.
I lived with them for a couple of hours, then called back up. They checked their records, and apparently the optometrist wrote the prescription down correctly, but the optician transcribed it incorrectly. Instead of the 2.25 correction for astigmatism in my left eye which I should have, these glasses have a 2.75 correction. That’s odd, because it seems like the right eye sees things blurrier than the left with the new glasses. In fact, the right eye seems to see things worse overall than with the old glasses.
Anyway, I can’t get back up there today, but I’ll go in tomorrow morning and hopefully we’ll get this all sorted out. In the meantime, back to the old glasses!
Oh yeah, getting that script right is *very* important!

Very snazzy though.

those are really nice frames! I can never find glasses that look that good on me. Though, it would be better if they didn’t make you woozy from the wrong script.

Oh God like you needed that on top of having felt sick lately! Are you better, btw?
And do you see Dr. Shook?

Sure do! They’re normally really good up there. I can see how a 2 turned into a 7, though. That could happen to anyone.

Thanks! My insurance pays up to X amount for new frames, so they were pretty inexpensive, too!

They really are great there. I’m surprised they made such a mistake though. But I’m sure they’re falling all over themselves with apologies.
