Getting New Glasses

 Went for an eye exam yesterday. Had to see a new doctor as my former one, Dr. Roberts has retired. This is the first eye exam and new pair of glasses since before the pandemic.

I have an issue with my eyes which causes me to see everything blurred or double-vision unless I tilt my head to the right. I also have the habit of closing my left eye when reading, since this gets rid of the double-vision for close-up stuff.
Dr. Roberts did what he could, but there was nothing he could do about the tilt. I lost count of the number of machines I had to look into and the tests I took yesterday. Dr. Goldman believes he can correct some of it through a series of prisms in my lens. Not even going to tell you how much it cost for the regular glasses and the computer ones. If it makes driving, reading and watching TV & films much less tiring it will be worth it.
Going to take a few weeks, so I may or may not have them by the holidays. I'll keep you updated.
