Random Thoughts from Last Year

At my last eye appointment, the doctor said that my eyes had gotten better. This was hard for me to believe, because my vision had gotten noticeably worse. Having thought about it since, I think I understand the seeming discrepancy. Her way of measuring “better” is in terms of how far apart the layers of the retina are, and apparently mine had gotten closer, so yay for that. That will help prevent future vision loss, but it says nothing about what might have happened to my vision while the layers were farther apart. I was certain that I’d lost some visual acuity, so I scheduled an appointment with an optometrist, hoping that new glasses might help. The optometrist verified that my vision has gotten worse, though it’s still good enough for driving, thankfully. However, glasses can’t fix it. 🙁
I told my husband that if we ever win a jackpot of $1,000,000 or more, I will tell a certain someone at work where to stick it. I’m so confrontation-averse that it would be difficult, but if I had a million bucks in my pocket, I think I could manage. The word “dumb-ass” would definitely have to be involved.
