Seeing
Progressive bifocals, in 7-10 days. A professional expense. Although they will come in handy at the store, another place where I have to play where-to-put-my-glasses, so I can see. No glaucoma, good. Still have anime eyes. Bella Donna. A bit freaky, really.
D switched his schedule, which he can do easily, and went up with me, took the train, which goes directly there. I was immensely grateful to have him there, as somehow getting poked in the eyes got me very irritable. He held things, and my hand, and filled in a few forms. I tried mightily to keep calm, but failed a bit. The frames cost more than I hoped, but they are pleasantly funky, and more to the point, hug my head effectively. I am determined to get used to the lenses. Gotta do what you gotta do.

Oh, well done! xo
I wondered about varifocals, but the eye doctor said get used to the new prescription and to having readers, then think about it, and I was pleased with their lack of pushiness about it, and getting a better prescription helps enormously.
My sister makes small, light, beautiful glasses cases out of scraps of fabric, with cords to hang around the neck in which to put your glasses so you can see. I'm trying to get into the habit of wearing and using them. I was so fed up with chasing around looking for them.
Lucy,
Doc said if I was just doing office work, he would not recommend it, but because my problems do interfere with my work, and I can't take them off while scrubbed (needing eye protection, and I have sterile gloves on) he thinks this will help me effectively. But not perfectly. It's a trade off, as most things are.
It's good to be able to see clearly.

It is nice that D has such flexibility.
Effective head hugging; not a term one hears particularly often.
