*mutter* New eyes
Finally broke down and got contacts after a mild helmet - wardrobe malfunction over the weekend. Sneezed my glasses off while at a light (thankfully). They had survived a year of wear without any adjustment so likely a new pair woulda been tight till next year. But I said **** it and went for contacts. I'm sure my vision insurance plan only covering new glasses every 2 years and a $500 price tag helped too.
Last time I wore contact lenses, the descriptions "Rigid" and "Semi-Gas Permeable" were being tossed around. Now I gotta deal with these Saran Wrap like pieces of plastic that I'm supposed to toss out every 2 weeks
Yes I'm officially getting somewhere near the broad, general vicinity of "Old" now
Wierdness, I keep trying to push my glasses up and going "Oh yeah, not there anymore"

ive been wearing contacts for about 14 years now (10 yrs old?). never liked glasses and both of my parents had contacts when i was growing up. they are a pain at times but i will *NEVER* get lasik surgery. there is no way in hell i could have my eyes cut/operated on. over my dead body. lol

O
It wasn't that bad, I was in and out in half hour with the surgery lasting about 10 min for both eyes. And my mom had glasses most of her life and still was able to get lasik so I don't think there is a time frame limitation.

I have (had?) astigmatism and the type I had I couldn't get lasik itself but what's called epik. Its the same thing but they do something a little different when it comes to cutting the flap. Anyway, I had a higher probability of needing to get it tweeked, but I came out 20/20 so it wasn't necessary. I also have a lifetime warranty with free checkups for life.
