Today I finally got to see an eye doctor from the NORA website, thank you Mokey for sending me his link!, and I have been prescribed a prism lens and light vision therapy. Just in case anyone is curious, the appointment was approx. $250, the glasses would have started at $200 depending what frames and lens coatings you choose, and the vision therapy will be 3x/week for 20 appts and will be $800.

I am very excited! The doctor knew everything I was talking about and even said what I was experiencing before I told him! We even said one thing at the exact same time (can't stand people standing too close to me because I can't see them properly). It was wonderful just to be understood, as I'm sure you all get.

I had the lens on for only a minute but the world finally looked "real" to me again! I didn't want to take them off!!! Can't wait till next week when I can pick them up. My head and eyes are killing me and I'm going to go now but I just had to share with all of you. Even if you don't think you're problem is eyes, if you're having problems with dizziness or sensitivities, eye fatigue or strain, etc. get them checked out!

He even said that carrying on conversations is linked to the eyes. I will be able to follow them more clearly once my eyes are better. I can't wait, and am trying not to get my hopes too high, to see what benefits I'm going to have from this!

Today is a good day! I hope you are all having one too!
