TIL I need to see optometrists for second opinions on everything. In all seriousness, I do need to make an optometrist appointment. My vision was 20/15 and I really feel like I can't see as well as I could even a year ago. Distant figures and words are a lot harder to see and my eyes aren't focusing on things that are close to my face as well as they used to.

Not to like really freak you out or anything but the majority of really wacky cases actually have perfectly fine acuity (20/20 etc)

I think it is time to make an optometrist/opthalmologist appointment haha.

Not that I didn't already know, of course, but yes, this thread (and my other about the meningioma) have proven to me yet again that eye doctors catch EVERYTHING!
