BLIND PANIC!

Remember last year when I got some specs for my suddenly crap eyesight? Well, i've been suspecting for sometime that my eyesight was getting crap again, even with my glasses on.

Naturally, I did nothing for a while, but spent my time wisely by squinting at everything and moaning about not being able to read.

I've just been to Scrivens and yes, I was correct, my eyesight has got even crapper. I asked optician man if this was just old age and he said no, he doesn't know what it is, which is very reassuring.

The good news though is that i've picked out some really dinky specs that I like much better than my current specs, and I've had transition lenses which means no more blind-by-sun episodes. I'm also having some prescription sunglasses for driving, but they are cheap and not to be seen by the general public.

I am not sure that optician is the person to visit with eyes problems, but maybe in UK it is different. I mean, don't you have these ophthalmologist fellows somewhere in the bowels of NHS? This is really not a joking matter.
