koshka_the_catI'm so jealous of people who can just see!
The new contact prescription was easy. I saw great on Catalina, give me those. Since they didn't give samples though, now I have to return the ones that didn't work to 1800 Contacts and order new ones.
Glasses? Didn't go well. He gave me the same prescription in my left eye, and changed the right. I misunderstood the way it worked from what the tech said (my close up was 1.75, the prescription had it at 2) and he seemed to think I wanted 1.75, not good close up vision. When I saw the prescription hadn't changed (it magically works now?) I put the glasses on, covered my right eye, nope, blurry. I made the nice optician get him. He went on about distance (I don't care that much, as long as I can drive), and something about what I wanted, and all this stuff about math. Then he upped the near part of the prescription, and now I get how it works. My complaint wasn't about math, but giving me the same prescription that didn't work. Ugh!
Typically, when I was probably a quarter of the way home I realized I didn't get the new contact prescription, so I went back.
But hooray for standing up for myself!
