I just got back from my opthtalmologist's appointment this morning I can't see shit right now. I'm in the office and I'm wearing my sunglasses because my eyes are dilated to hell and gone. If this entry is full of typoes, well, it's because I can't really see the letters on my keyboard and I'm typing from memmore. This shouldn't really be a problem, as I'm a decent touch typisst, but still. I'll reread myself later when I can see straight.<\/p>\n

I got good news nd bad news today. My eyes are in decent shape and my prescription doesn't need to be updated. The headaches I've been getting in the past weeks are mostly due to fatigue of staring into a screen for hours on end. The bad news is that my eye pressure, which had always been borderline, now officially moved into the “high” range. This means that I'm at risk to get glaucoma. Given the fact that I have a family history it, I'm almost guaranteed to roll snake-eyes in my lifetime. I have another appointment in september to see if this is just a blip, or if my eye pressure really is problematic. If it is, I have to start a treatment of daily drops for the foreseable future, or until a new treatment comes out.<\/p>\n

Now I've always knows that my eyesight is crappy, and I've always had the theoretical knowledge that I might lose my eyesight someday. But the fact that it's lo longer in the realm of the theoretical, and is now more a wuestion of when rather than if, is really getting to me.<\/p>\n

And the fat that I can't see what I'm typing just makes t all that much more fun.<\/p>\n

This sucks, and I am not a happy camper.<\/p>\n

Edit: I can see clearly now, and I think I'll leave the typos there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
