Eye Test

Went for an eye test yesterday at Vision Express for the first time in almost 6yrs! Cant believe I've left it this long between tests, a side effect of the fact that my company no longer provides in-house eye tests but vouchers instead and lack of funds, knowing that I'd probably need an update. Anyhow booked myself into Vision Express as I've been impressed with their service when Julia had her eyes tested, and went for the whole nine yards, including a digital photo of the inside of my eyes so they can monitor any changes. The upshot is that my eyesight has deteriorated since my last check, no surprise there, and I'm going to try out my first pair of varifocal glasses having reached that "certain" age whereby my arms are no longer long enough to hold my reading material at a sufficient distance so I can read it :-) However I also have a squint, something I've suffered with since the dawn of time and so have to get top quality varifocal lenses in order to have some degree of success in getting my eyes to work together. I'm too embarrassed to admit online what these glasses are gonna be costing me but they have a 60-day money back guarantee so if all else fails I'll have to have two pairs :-( Hopefully they'll be ready sooner rather than later, the lens are being tailor made to fit my new frames and how said frames fit my face so fingers crossed I manage to get used to them. It will be such a boon if I can as I have to keep taking my glasses off for reading and computer work which is a pain and I'd rather not have to carry two pairs around all the time as you always seem to be wearing the wrong pair at the wrong time!
