billroperI've been noticing that it may be time to adjust my contact lens prescription lately, so when I got a call from my optometrist wanting me to schedule an appointment, we made one for today.
I have one eye adjusted to prefer close vision, while the other is adjusted for farther distances. We dialed back the prescription two ticks on the close eye and that was an absolute disaster, as I could no longer see as far as my computer screen accurately with that eye. We've now backed it off one tick and it's still a bit weak, leaving me to wonder if the right choice would have been to leave the right eye alone and back the left eye off a tick.
I'll try the current combination tomorrow. If I don't like the way that it's working, then we'll try something else. It's possible that I'll end up back on the combination that I had previously.
We'll see. (I hope.)
