Anyway. I signed in, and they called me into the pre-test area. I took 3 different tests, and was positive that I failed the last one. It is the one where you stare at a black circle on a white screen and they make squiggles pop up, and you hit a button when you see a squiggle. Well I did fail it the first time, apparently I missed a squiggle. The second time I nailed it though. I wonder what would happen if I missed a squiggle. Would they have made me get one of the mono-glass thingys? Probably.
After the pretest I was second in line to see the doctor. I was in a big room full of chairs. There was a creepy couple next to me. The only other people in the whole room. One of those couples that dress the same. Baggy shirts, jackets, jeans and skater shoes. Well I couldn't tell where one person started and the other person ended. That might have something to do with my bad eye balls. What is so sexy about the eye doctor? "Ooooh sweetie - lets make out NOW and later make a baby with bad vision!" I was squinting at them and trying to glare. Well they disappeared to do something... somewhere. Seriously, they probably have a bad eye'd baby growing up in the belly right now.
The doctor comes out and calls my name. I head into his little office, and he gives me another handful of tests, then he does the eye exam where he gets really uncomfortably close to my face. I could smell his boogers.
Then the good news comes. My eyes are perfectly bad! He said they are perfect eyes for contacts, because they both are the same prescriptions, and another bunch of stuff I really didn't understand. So right then and there he tells me he can give me trial contacts for a week. I was stoked! I hate wearing my glasses, but I do enjoy being able to see. I was so against contacts because I was in denial that my eyes were bad enough to need contacts all the time, instead of glasses when I drive.
I had been there for about an hour, and they were closing up shop. I was the last soul in there. The lady checking me out, had to have me put in the contacts and take them out. Apparently they can only do that with a doctor present, so he was sitting at the door waiting for me to stick a contact in my eye. I really don't perform well under pressure, and everyone was staring at me. I basically just kept poking myself in the eye ball. Then one time it just stuck there, and I blinked it into place. Then I had to pinch the contact off my eye, as soon as I got it out, the doctor put his gloves on and left. Seriously like 2 seconds after I got it out.
Now I can see! It's like everything is in HD. Is this what you all see all the time?!These eyes have contacts:
These ones have glasses:
Do you wear contacts? I need to know what the best kind are. I have some that are called night and day trial contacts right now. I am going back next week to purchase my real supply. What kind do you like?
