    New lenses

    Had to get new ones since the old were... not good. I got headaches, and it messed with my perspective so badly i couldn't drive.

    The new ones are better. I can kinda read if I crank up the screen size by 150% and I can drive with them. Good for far distance sight but my right eye does all the work when I read. Text however has a strong double image, which sucks.

    Got my new glasses

    Just picked up my new glasses since I realized I couldn't read with my left eye anymore. These are far more powerful than my last pair, and my god I don't think I've had such a strong reaction to new specs. From the moment I put them on, to now hours later it feels like I'm in a funhouse. I know its going to take time for my brain to adjust to these but its actually a pretty disorienting. It

    Wishing everyone a merry christmas!

    Had to replace my keyboard due to a frayed wire, but things are progressing. As predicted, as I edit the chapter its fast becoming another 'what was I thinking?' moment as some portions don't add to the story and are getting rewritten or dumped entirely.

    But on a happier note, I'm wishing you all a merry christmas and a happy new year. Hopefully it'll be better than the last one.

    Update on the next chapter

    Okay, so I managed to connect the 3 big portions of the chapter I wrote but I need to reread it to make sure it makes sense. Thankfully i seem to edit faster than write these days. I hope to get you guys a new chapter soon. Even if its shorter than what I hope, I want to get my readers something before next week.

Got my new glasses · 12:48am January 11th

Just picked up my new glasses since I realized I couldn't read with my left eye anymore. These are far more powerful than my last pair, and my god I don't think I've had such a strong reaction to new specs. From the moment I put them on, to now hours later it feels like I'm in a funhouse. I know its going to take time for my brain to adjust to these but its actually a pretty disorienting. It could be my brain is trying to relearn how to use both eyes since my right was compensating for so long.

The important thing: I can read again with my left eye again. its a little fuzzy, but I can make out the letters on my screen at normal size now.

I'm still going to talk to my ophthalmologist about what is the next step in my eye's treatment when i see him next month.

Good luck!

Hope everything works out for you; seems like you've been through a lot for quite some time.

ever since 2023 when I had my eye injury, yeah. =/

Hopefully they are enough. Good luck!

Glad to hear you have some functional glasses (hopefully you adapt to them quickly).

I gotta go back at the end of the month, its been 10 days and they are still having that fun house quality to them.
I did find if I hold them about 12 inches from my face they're nearly perfect.
