Happy Thursday

[Pagan]

Have you heard me cussing and swearing lately? My vision is giving me fits again. It is actually perfectly normal if you have astigmatism and go through cataract surgery. The eyes change as they heal. I see better, but I see double, and it gets very very tiring. I keep brushing it off. Last night, I was stitching on fabric I always use, and I could not see the holes - with my magnifying lenses or without glasses. So.. the earliest appointment I can get with the surgeon is December 21st. It will be short spurts of work until I get new glasses. At least it is something I expected. I am just not ready for this much of a change this soon.

So your cataract surgery gives you problems?
I have no idea what astigmatism is, but I have also some shit with my vision. It goes blurry and the glasses are perfect, except when they aren't. Which are when my eyes go in and out of a blurry thingy.
I have a feeling my eyes would give various "scores" if I where to take tests repeatedly over days. WHich would be way to costly.
And when I try to explain this to my eye-doctor, he just says I'm fine.

Could you explain a bit more?

Anyway, take care!

Sounds tough Pagan. I hope your doctor can help.
