SlayneB is thankful for many things this Thanksgiving.

No need 2 months ago

My eyes have gotten so much better from the vitamins and fish oil that I really don’t need glasses, so I’m marking this done.

I can see for miles and miles... 2 months ago

I have been taking more supplements and fish oil, and I have noticed my eyesight is getting a whole lot better. I am finding my reading glasses annoying and am starting to read more (and finer print to boot) without them. My far vision in my right eye is now eagle sharp. I was walking to my car from school looking at every little detail in amazement, from the tiny stones in the pavement to clouds far away.

So my left eye is still not as good (but still much better than it was), but I think I’m going to give it some time and keep this up before I get glasses, and maybe check into more alternative healing modalities as well.

This backs up something I say a lot: most ‘health’ problems are simply nutritional deficiencies, not organic diseases.

Bummer! 4 months ago

I have been myopic since I was ten. Wore thick glasses and contact lenses for many year. Vision uncorrected finally settled at 20/1150. Yes, legally blind without correction.

Then, by the miracle of laser surgery, and able to see without glasses. I am still stunned by it, I was set free. I could actually see my legs while shaving! But now, years later, noticed the left eye is starting to go near sighted again, about 20/100. I can’t afford to get more lasik on it till I graduate school, so I’m gonna have to bite the bullet and get glasses, again. The good thing is they won’t have the inch thick lenses of days past. Maybe, for the first time in my life, I could actually wear stylish, not geek-a-rama, Gal From Another Planet glasses. I could be a saucy little smarty-pants, perhaps.

The school has a cheap examination and glasses option, so I’ll check into that.

i need to get computer glasses 20 months ago

I’m always in front of my office computer 8 hours a day and my laptop most of the time at home. I’m feeling that I no longer have perfect eyesight than I used to have. I was about to get computer glasses last week but I opted to wait for a few more weeks until I have enough money cause I really want to have Benetton frames instead. Hehe.

Going to make an appointment tomorrow! 20 months ago

I need my yearly eye exam and really need some new glasses!



Untitled 22 months ago

need new pr since mine broke 4 months ago. the scipt on these are weak and not good for me eyes + they are highly unfashionable.



Fashion only 23 months ago

When I went to work in a large conservative sorporation, my slightly funky glasses got me a lot of “I’m nt staring at you” looks. So I bought some plain glasses and I fit in better.

for some reason, this feels like a big accomplishment
