Today I went to the opticians for an overdue eye test. A part of me was putting it off because as annoying as eye tests are anyway, they're extremely hard for me & also for the person carrying it out. Just an awkward situation I get anxious in.
Another part of me was putting it off because who really wants to pay out for an eye test, especially when you're not working/earning & have a perfect little boy you want to spoil as much as you can :)
Anyway, the blurriness has been terrible lately, worse than ever.
I had glasses already, partly because my vision is borderline needing them & so the optician felt with everything else, they could benefit me. But the main reason was to put an anti-glare coating on them to try & enable me to tolerate computers etc, unfortunately it never really helped enough.
So, I was kind of hoping that the blurriness was maybe just a normal problem & that my vision had just deteriorated.
If only it was that simple- my right eye (the dodgy one, as I call it) has deteriorated the tiniest amount & the left one is still the same.
What this means is that the vision problem is still unexplained & even with the new lenses, everything around me still blurs & 'jumps.'
I guess I've saved myself some money because I won't bother paying out for new glasses when they don't make any difference. It's just so frustrating being told by yet another person "wait & see the specialist."
I also have a problem with my neck, which is linked to my migraines & needs physiotherapy (the muscle is too tight, so movement is restricted & it's like my head is 10x bigger than my neck) but the physiotherapist I saw told me he can't touch it until I've seen the specialist. It's always the same. So many health professionals won't touch any of the smaller problems until I've seen a specialist for the debilitating one. 12 days to go!!
