I’ve always had a love/hate relationship with my glasses. I love them because they make me look smarter. It doesn’t matter how stupid something I say is, I will still look smart because I have glasses. I hate them because they are a pain in the arse, usually uncomfortable, I can’t actually see without them, and they result in the guys who are attracted to me all having librarian fetishes.
But as much as I don’t enjoy wearing glasses, I am petrified of getting laser surgery. What if it went wrong? What if it didn’t go wrong but my sight just went a little bit crappy after a few years and then I couldn’t wear contacts ever again? What if my tear ducts went mental and kept pissing salty water leaving me no choice but to get my tear ducts cauterised? (This happened to my workmate in Texas.) Too scary. I only have one set of eyes, and even though they are largely broken I would quite like to keep them at a sustainable level of broke.
But today I read about this miracle treatment called i-Go. These are hard contact lenses that you wear at night as you sleep, which somehow miraculously correct your eyesight for the next day. To be honest, I don’t really understand how this works and it sounds a bit like voodoo trickery, but apparently it is presently going through clinical trials and is largely successful.
This sounds awesome. Actual awesome. The only problem being even if I did want to pay £40 a month, my eyes are actually too broke to do a trial. But, perhaps yours aren’t. Wouldn’t these magic lenses be kind of great?
lol its like jelly molds. for your eyes.
also, my Mum got lazer eye surgery. My Mum. My scardy cat Mum lol
