Well that was a first.
I fell asleep last night with my contacts in. They aren't the contacts you can take out to clean and soak for the next time you want them, they are one day disposable contacts that you can feel really need to come out and be tossed away at the end of the day.
What was I thinking? That I could miraculously see all of a sudden?
I was so worried I would have to go to the doctor to have them scrape out fragments of old, half dissolved contact lens out of my eyes, but they were still in place. Not dissolved at all, although my eyes were pretty crusty when I woke up, my body in obvious distaste over having left foreign objects lodged in it.
After my initial realization, then shock, then self embarrassment passed my next thoughts were "hhmmm, what would it be like to wake up and see properly every morning?...laser eyes surgery!"
So this has got me thinking about laser eye surgery. I was pretty irresponsible leaving in my contacts when I went to bed, maybe I can use that as justification to myself that its probably whats best for me, you know, so I don't hurt my self in the future with my ailing memory.
I am going to roll that one around in my head for awhile, see how it fits.
Ugh, I'm glad I don't have contacts...yet! But while you're rolling around the idea of laser surgery, think of this one too. They're called intacts or something. They just make a small slit in your eye ball and put these special semi permanent contacts in and that way if your prescription or eyes change over the years, they can change it, instead of shaving your cornea with a laser. Or something like that. For more information, talk to Daryl. He's in the know.
