Eye Problems!
Here's a good excuse you can use for not going to work. Call in and say you can't go in because of eye problems. If they ask what's wrong, just tell them that you can't see coming in to work.

Just came back from an eye doctor's appointment and everything is blurry. So much for that doctor! Ha. Not really. They gave me eye drops which dialated my pupils, so they are now huge. Driving home wasn't a problem, I just kept my eyes closed.

The doctor was cool.

They don't send a puff of air into your eyes anymore when looking inside there for Glaucoma. When that old blue light came along I was bracing myself for the puff of air that never came. That shows my age.

They eye test was the typical pain in the neck.

Can you read this:

T L P O C

Can you read this:

h j u o c

And then the switching of lenses came. Is this better than this one? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Or is there no difference.

ANSWER: NO DIFFERENCE. Can I go now?

They must be able to hook up a computer to make this test more accurate. After a while it all looks blurry.
