The Same Four Eyes

Had an appointment to have an eye exam first thing this morning.  I hadn't had one since 2007 and hadn't had new glasses made since 2006. I thought surely I would be getting a new prescription; not so. The reason for my tired eyes is just deteriorating muscle tone. The feeling that I can't see things as clearly as I once did is due to the beginning of cataracts. Boo.

The good news is that my retina and macula are in good shape and for that I am grateful. My doctor does a very thorough exam and I am just waiting now for the medication that dilates the pupils to wear off before going to the sewing room - it's quite bright there most days. I will need to restrict my sewing activities to daytime till I get my Daylight Lamp back I think.
