Well, I've worn glasses or contacts for many years. Since I have dry eye syndrome, I can no longer wear contacts. the last contacts I tried over 10 years ago were actually "bifocal" Talk about having to adjust to them which I never did so I just went back to glasses.
Now I'm having vision problems and the dr can't figure out exactly what's wrong. I've almost lost all vision in my right eye which has always been weaker. But I couldn't even read the top line on the chart...could only see tops of letters. Then they did the "color book test" which is like those prints you see at the mall where if you look at it long enough, you can make out the actual subject in it. I didn't even pass the test with my right eye..(sometimes I think they try to trick you!) My dr just looks at me like "are you serious"? Well, yes!! So now I have an apt with a retina specialist and then will go see a neurologist. I did this routine 2 years ago and none of the doctors could figure out what was wrong.
I wear the progressive lens and usually don't have any problems with them. Right now though, if I stay on computer too long, both eyes will become so blurred I can't see anything!!! Dr did say that I needed cataract surgery in boh eyes but he won't do it until all other options have been explored.
My little 2.5 yo grandson had to start wearing glasses about 4 months ago. The glasses frame is rubber and the lens are acrylic. He is so cute in them!!
