Nov. 29th, 2005 05:23 pmI went to the eye doctor today and while there, asked about LASIK! I realized this fall that I have been wearing contact lenses for *20 years*. If you do the math - and subtract 100 for sick days or lazy days (plus the 6 weeks when I had a cast and couldn't reach my face with both hands) - that comes to about 7200 days of putting little floppy pieces of plastic into my eyes. I've had it. I'm sick of it. I'm just done.
The good news is, based on the tests he did today, I appear to be a viable candidate! The bad news is, they won't do it until several months after I stop breastfeeding, because of hormonal changes. (My current arbitrary goal is to make it to her first birthday.)
So.... I ordered another box of contact lenses for each eye. Late spring, early summer, perhaps - I can think about it some more.
Meanwhile, it's really unbelievably cold here. Maybe I *do* want to move to California!!
Other good news: I got my copy (from the library) of A Feast for Crows today. Woohoo!
