Blind as a bat

[pne]

Ick. I forgot my glasses at home which I usually wear when I'm on the computer at work.

Fortunately, I can still see without them, only not as well. And I'm kind of used to using them at work (though at home I sometimes wear them and often not), so it'll seem weird.

Wow. Mine are -8.25 in the right eye and -7.75 in the left (my contacts are -8.00 and -7.50 respectively, since they don't make them at quarter-steps past -6.00, only half-steps). I have a moderate astigmatism in the right eye and a severe one in the left, but since I also just plain don't see out of that eye (I have amblyopia, lazy eye, which means that although the eye works, the brain doesn't process correctly the information from it) they don't bother correcting it. For years I've worn thicker contact lenses to mask the astigmatism in the right eye, but I think I may have to bite the bullet and get toric lenses (which are specifically for astigmatism, and more than twice as expensive) for that eye this year.
