Spectacles

Wearing spectacles is so torturing especially for people who has very high power like me. Yes, my power now is about -800 for each eyes. If I remove my glasses, I can only see blury vision. My blury vision has been following me for at least 20 years. The first time I wore glasses was in Standard 3 when I used to watch the TV as near as 3 feets from my eye level. I used to request to sit at the front row in my classroom until one fine day, my dad decided to bring me to the optometrist. Well, it started with -300 each.

I have been relying on contact lenses since Form 3. Never like wearing specs since then as I think I look ugly (with the choice of spec frames I have last time - really ugly man...haha) and felt it's so inconvenient when there is extra co-corricular activities at school. Hence, I can wear my contact lenses as long as I can in a day. From 8am class to yumcha session untill 6am the next day and class again at 8am till before I go to bed (during college time la). Hardly touches my specs.

Need to wear glasses for at least 2 weeks so that the eyeball can go back to normal before I do my Eye Examination next week. Today is my 8th day wearing specs and it's damn heavy till it hurts my nose, ears and giving me headache sometimes. I'd encountered problems like cannot see clearly, cannot walk nicely, cannot think properly, banging myself on the wall, knocking myself on anything, driving recklessly and many more during this 'spec wearing' period.

I have to bear with it for at least 4-6 weeks in order to complete my lasik surgery. By then, I will have perfect vision and don't need specs or contact lenses anymore. Yeah ! I will be happier then !
