contacts
Finally found the courage to go and get contact lenses. Needless to say that I spent more than an hour trying to get the damn things on top of my eyeballs. I think the ophthalmologist (optometrist?) got sick of me by the time I finally managed to put the contacts on my right eye. *cringe*
Pros: I don't have to adjust the lenses every five minutes or so, just like I did with my glasses
Cons: I have astigmatism, and this astigmatism isn't enough or too much to convert into the grade of the contacts, so instead of -2.50 for my right eye, it became -2.00 only, and -1.50 for my left eye, instead of -2.00. (In other words, my vision isn't as clear as it would have been if I wore glasses)
feeling:
contemplative
listening to: Otherside -- Californication
