Too bad you weren't there. You could've brought Spot along. :mrgreen:

We've got better things to do. :P

I took Friday off because of an doctor appointment, and found out that my prescription didn't change. He said my left eye was a little different, but not enough to warrant new glasses.

The good news is, my eyesight stable. It was getting progressively worse over the last 10 years, and have finally calmed down. :woot:

I guess I don't have to spend on new glasses... but I do need to get a new set of contacts. I guess I'll go with the aqua brand that soco-chan recommended earlier. :victory:

6 months ago I went to get an eye exam and for the the FIRST time in my life my eyes actually improved after having a prescription since I was a teenager...in fact my prescritption improved by two steps....power to all the nutritional supplements I've been taking...only validated my belief in the fact that those supplements DO make a difference :)

Fa real! My right eye got better the last time I had gone to get them examined. It hasn't gotten worse again.

Your vision does stabilize eventually, sooner if you have contacts, I've heard...

Thing is, after that, your vision starts to go the other way: my near vision is getting worse and reading glasses are around the corner. :sweat:

Really? Why is that?

Ugh, yea. My near vision will definitely get worse. It's in the family. :bleh:

Well, supposedly the contacts sorta act like braces and keep the eyes from progressively changing their shape (which is why your vision changes), so your vision stabilizes...

Nice :applaud:

The reason I know, in my case, the supplements made a difference was aside from the weaker prescription this time around the optometrist also mentioned that according to the test results (digital scan of the cornea) he said that my cornea itself actually LOOKED healthier than the last time I was examined in that office and that was roughly 3 years prior.

Yup...that's why my friend who has astigmatism has been wearing hard lenses for years.

Yeah, hard lenses are even more corrective in that respect... I tried 'em, but they're not nearly as comfortable a soft lenses.


Hmm, isn't there a thread about glasses/contacts? :headscracth:

Well excuse me, Mr. Important and his royal pup. I wasn't going to invite you to the tea party anyway. :puppydog: Just playing, beemie. :muack: :mrgreen:

Acuvue Oasys or Proclear. Just keep in mind that what works for someone might not work for someone else.

I wish I had known about gas permeable lenses earlier because then my eyesight wouldn't have gotten so bad over the years. :sweat: Too bad I'm so used to the comfort of soft lenses that it would be hell to get something hard put into my eyes.

And we sure have been talking a lot about glasses/contacts recently...

Well, we had our last Japanese class last night. I really enjoyed the whole experience. Yuki-san did say they were considering running a more in-depth course next year, which would be awesome :)

And she did end up providing food for our last class: Her business partner and our teacher for last week, Pam-sensei, brought in some okonomiyaki, with okonomiyaki sauce, mayonnaise, nori and bonito flakes :drooling:
