uh oh

I think I may need glasses again. During church yesterday I grabbed Robyn's glasses and tried them on just for fun, but as I looked up to the overhead screen where the song lyrics were projected I realized that they were so crisp and clear with those glasses on, without them, they were pretty blurry. I could still read them, but they just weren't crisp. I have not been suffering with headaches or anything, just didn't realize how blurry things were until I had that moment of absolute crispness. I haven't been to the eye doctor in a few years because last time I was in he said not to bother coming in unless something was bothering me. I used to have glasses. When I was 2 years old I had a lazy eye and was in bifocals, but as the years progressed my eyes got better, until grade 7 when I would put my glasses low on the bridge of my nose and look over top to read the board at school then look through them to write notes. I eventually ditched the glasses and it has been 12 years since then. I figured that my eyes would probably eventually get worse because most people's do as they age, but I didn't figure it would be this soon. Now I wonder if it would be beneficial for me to have glasses, or if it would just weaken my eyes further. Either way I am going to call the optomitrist tomorrow and make myself an appointment.
