These are your eyes
Posted by Lissa on October 30, 2009
Well, not your eyes; these are MY eyes*:
And these are my eyes on dilating drops:
Can you SEE how huge my pupil is?
No seriously, look:
I hate going to the eye doctor. I come out looking like — well, I’ve no idea what my pupils would do on LSD, but popular culture leads me to believe they would look something like this.
And, of course, that made the hour-plus drive back to Lissaville an absolute joy.
*grumble, grumble, snarl*
Three things, though, made it bearable:
1) I’m not sensitive about my eyes. The doctor can poke ‘em, prod ‘em, drip nasty potions into ‘em, and I just sit there phlegmatically.
2) Today’s Friday, and Mike’s coming home!
and 3) it was a consultation for maybe doing Lasik. SQUEEE!!!
*No, I haven’t had to pull out the fleece hoods yet. I don’t look forward to it.

An hour’s drive? Um, why not find a closer eye doctor?

Wolf, ONE of their offices is five minutes from me. But I had to get tested with a special instrument, and the only one they have was at the far-out office.

I just had a lasik consultation as well. I never knew they had different types of procedures (epi and traditional) and damn, I was shocked at how expensive it is.
