I have an astigmatism in one eye, and it only affects my reading in low light situations.
I heard you can simulate this effect with a few beers, and I wanted to make the holiday season special by feeling solidarity with the visually impaired, Your Honor.
I have astigmatism and I read “Christmas is so much prettier when you have Afghanistan”
Had you never seen regular photos of a lit up Christmas tree?
You mean when the photographer squint’s his eyes?
That day you put on your glasses at night and are like, “whoa! I can see!” is a game changer.
“How could instantly improved vision not be at the top of everyone’s todo list”
ICL surgery was fucking fantastic for me. If your insurance covers it, I highly recommend! I had a bad astigmatism in my right eye, and now I see 20/20 in both eyes! Fucking game changer.
I had ICL surgery with strong astigmatism and nearsightedness - I feel like I cannot see details of trees and fine lines like I did before with my glasses. It is honestly more than a little disappointing. I wonder if I gave the right verbal cues to my optometrist when they got the refraction measurements prior to making the lenses.
That super sucks! I had to go in a second time right around the month mark to have one of the lenses corrected because it shifted slightly. In and out in ~10 mins. Do you think that could be a possible option for you?
That’s something to consider, thank you! It’s been since the summer, and I also got a new prescription for glasses to wear when I need to do detail work like pest scouting in agriculture or check out cultured bacterial colonies. I haven’t had them made yet though, since honestly the ICL vision is pretty good, just different than I’ve been used to for my entire life. :P
Me too!
