Eye check

eye checkWe take our eyes for granted most of the time. Like the Australian batting order, it’s only something we think about when there’s a problem.

I’m seeing the optometrist tomorrow for the first time in several years.

I’m pretty sure my short-sightedness has got worse. I now have trouble reading small text close to my face.

I don’t think my astigmatism is any worse, but I recall an optometrist telling me once the short-sightedness may deteriorate as I get older.

The other reason I thought about my eyes today was they woke me up last night. Itchy, hayfever eyes for the first time at night this spring.

I’m trying a new hayfever spray. Hopefully it will kick in quickly and give some relief.
