Mike Honcho 4,010 Posted May 13, 2019 Early eye exam, eyes dilated - Light induced headache while trying to diagnose network connection problems. On this date in 2019, Mike Honcho shouldn't have gone from the eye doctor to straight to work - he was very grumpy all day. On the plus side,no where to go but up from here. Hope everyone enjoys a better Monday than me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,169 Posted May 13, 2019 I'm long overdue for an eye exam. Problem is I still see fine for distance so I don't have the incentive to go (I do use cheap readers for fine print, but I don't need a doctor visit for those). I know, they test for glaucoma blah blah blah, that's why I should go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,338 Posted May 13, 2019 Had to take my dad to get one of those done then for him to have his cataract surgery. This Thursday he’s having the last ablation he can have. So hopefully that fixes the afib attacks he’s been having Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd love to get corrective surgery, but that would mess up my near vision, which would means glasses all day at work, computer, reading, and anytime I"m using a camera eyepiece and not need them for driving. I did ask the doctor where we are at on the 6 million dollar man, if that eye thingy he had is happening yet, but that's a no. Oh and the network issue was someone forgot to update the IP addresses used spreadsheet---so that's fixed now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard that if you have one eye corrected for near and the other for far, your brain learns to use the correct one for the situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually discussed that with the doctor today, he's not a big fan. Said the success rate is between 50 and 60%, so for the time being I'll just be near sighted. Damn, getting older is a .

Cruzer 1,992 Posted May 14, 2019 Good morning - feeling for all the folks getting pounded by rain. We've had a freakish wet spring so far ourselves. Finally a great week of weather - sunny and low 80's here all week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
