My wife and I got some new glasses today. We had eye exams first. I passed with a B+. Anyways, during my exam the optometrist asks if anyone has ever told me that one pupil is larger then the other. “No”, I reply, “Should I be self conscious about it?”. She goes on to tell me that it is hardly noticeable unless you are looking hard for it, and that she’ll be monitoring it. It turns out that this is something caused by a Neurological disorder from trauma.

My vision is 20/20 again. Huh? Well, my last glasses were a very light prescription. This new prescription is just for driving. I have problems where I stare at a computer screen all day, drive home at night, and then stare at a computer screen all night. OK, sometimes I watch TV from a distance. The problem is that my eyes are focused on one thing and have a hard time adjusting for distance.

I joined my wife and her mother who were picking out glasses. I think they had just finished up. We started looking for some that would fit my so-called image. I guess they are more aware of my style then I am. I let them pick out a few glasses and I tried each pair on. I finally settled with some light silver frames that were oval shaped.

We made sure that the glasses were shatter resistant. The frames are also great for young kids. My last pair got damaged playing with my niece and nephew.
