I'm getting blind

No, not really.

Me and my mom were at SM awhile ago. She accompanied me to buy a new pair of eye glasses at Sarabia Optical.



 I was eyeing for a cheap pair since she'll be the one who'll pay but she insisted to go for the expensive (durability wise) When the opto/opta whoever doctor was that checked my grade vision, I got 375 for my left eye and 400 for the right. My grade has been stable for about three years now. I asked doc if it's already worst then he told me there's nothing to worry about.

I've been wearing contact lenses since Grade 5 (so that's about 11 years already) I decided to switch back to glasses cause migraine is disturbing me frequently and I think it's all because of my contact lenses. If only I could turn back time, I won't waste my time playing games on Play Station the whole day for it may be one of the reasons why I got near-sighted.

I need to deal with my near sightedness for the rest of my life. If ever I have enough money, I won't hesitate to undergo Lasik Surgery. I really want a 20/20 vision. It sucks to feel somehow blind especially during night time without wearing glasses or contact lenses.

  1. Ohh.that's sounds uncool. I mean your eyes problem. Good thing I still enjoy my 20/20 vision eventhough I read a lot using dim lamp shade. I guess, my being a veggie-eater esp. the yellow ones helped a lot in preserving my good vision. Just do take an extra care of your eyes, dalawa lang yan and it's precious of all the senses I guess :))

  4. I'm also visually impaired. I've been wearing glasses since I was in grade 2. And now at the age of 20, I already have -4.00 (400) grade, nearsightedness din. But it's okay, we can deal with this until we have the money for Lasik Surgery na :)
