in reply to The state of my vision

I have had these specs so long, I can not imagine myself without them. Besides... I am too clutzy for contacts

"Sorry sir, but I will be a little late again. Yes, sir, same reason as last time. Yes, I will try to stop shoving my finger into my eye...."

And I guess I am a little too chicken for the surgery.

    I can understand this. Got contacts. Trained myself for a few days before I could actually touch my eyeball. (yech.) Went back to glasses anyway.

    I *like* glasses. I'm nearsighted with astigmatism (can't tell you my numbers off the top of my head, but they're rather bad). I take 'em off to read, wear 'em for everything else.

    I think laser surgery is safe enough, and the cost low enough to go for it, but I like my glasses. What can I say? They help define my face. It looks weird in the mirror without them. *shrug*
