A Sight For Sore Eyes
Life is all about living and I recently realized that I was struggling to see things clearly (literally!) so I decided to get a vision test at the local opticians. Once I arrived I was given a choice of dilation drops or a computerized eye test which cost $35 more. I chose the option which meant I would not have blurry vision for six hours and after a couple of minutes staring through a lens connected to a PC my retina had been completely scanned and digitized!
After a good old fashioned check of my lens prescription I chose a new pair of frames and was on my way. Once again, technology advancements have sped up a process and I certainly appreciated the lack of dilated pupils. I’m looking forward to my new glasses which will hopefully give me a fresh outlook on life (no pun intended).
