In the past 6 months my right eye’s vision in contacts has been getting fuzzier & fuzzier, so I went to get them checked out today. Figured I’d walk away with a stronger right-eye prescription; that’s all. Wrong. My prescription is the same, but I now have astigmatism in my right eye. This sucks because, even though they DO make astigmatism contacts, there are very few choices for my high strength prescription (-9.00). *saaaaaad faaaaaaaaace* So in a week I’ll get a trial pair and begin the numerous follow ups to see if they work, blah blah blah… The only other alternative (and the one they keep pushing on me) is to wear my glasses 24/7 from now on. (ew…. sorry, but please no thank you!) If that’s the solution then I’ll look into Lasik to see if I’m a candidate. Sigh~ my doctor didn’t seem very confident about this whole thing :(.
The other craptastic thing is that thanks to this my exam was more expensive and the contacts are about double in price than I used to pay (even on 1-800-contacts.)
I hate going to the doctors. Not because it’s “the doctor’s.” But because I hate weeks of trial and error. It’s always like this. always. It’s expensive and time consuming and disappointing. I’m actually really upset about this, but I know I’ll be better tomorrow and a little more optimistic and put my hope into these new contacts until they eventually prove to NOT be a solution and I can get all emo over the next “solution.” hahahah 
I just dread the thought of wearing glasses 24/7 again. I know lots of people do it, but I’m sorry. I don’t feel confident in glasses. I enjoy wearing mine every other day, but the thought of having no alternate is stifling. I’ve worn glasses since 1st grade, got contacts in 8th grade… I just want to have A CHOICE.
