I went to the optometrist the other day (yay, for having vision coverage again!!! marriage is great!). The bad news is my eyesight has gotten even worse! I am now -500 in my left eye and -700 in my right eye! The good news is the vast difference between my two eyes qualifies me for medically required contacts, or something like that, which means that instead of my insurance covering just $150 of my contacts, I can have them COMPLETELY for free. Any kind!
Right now, I'm trying out some daily disposables. It's great; I just pop them out at night and toss them away! I also get to save money from never having to purchase contacts solution again!
If any of you have eyes that are at least 200 degrees apart in severity, ask your eye doctor about the medically required contacts (although I really don't remember the term, so I hope I'm not sending you off sounding like a fool).
This is the first time I've ever been so excited to be blind as a bat!
Heyyy! Mazal tov!!!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you've been so frustrated with going so long without an eye exam. You ARE blind as a bat!
I'm so happy for you :)
