I'm quite a bit older than you and I now only wear my glasses for driving and watching tv. I'm glad all your tests were ok.

I have a vague idea that I have heard of vision being improved after a knock or jolt, but don't remember any details. So pleased all your tests came back fine, and I hope the improvement is permanent. My sight has been deteriorating for years, and spectacles upgraded on a regular basis. Last week I was tested again, and told I now have 'mini cataracts' ... 'should not bother me for another five years'. Ugh, not so nice to look forward to, but I am loving my new upgraded lenses.

The same thing happened to my husband.......Rosemary<br />The same thing happened to my husband....but the opposite.Due to cataracts Tom was having trouble driving but no longer needed reading glasses. The Doc said the cataracts were causing him to be nearsighted which improved his close vision. Since you donβt have cataracts....and the opposite happened to you.....not sure this is very helpful. Enjoy your improved eyesight. Maybe you are aging in reverse π<br />Janey and Co.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14263426600052174272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-13846197610040255492019-08-11T14:20:19.794+01:002019-08-11T14:20:19.794+01:00ππMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-4709362485240100022019-08-11T09:15:33.202+01:002019-08-11T09:15:33.202+01:00I am sending her over to you post hasteπI am sending her over to you post hasteπRosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-86196267701330985712019-08-11T09:13:59.686+01:002019-08-11T09:13:59.686+01:00Dear Mariette - I have heard that when you first s...Dear Mariette - I have heard that when you first start wearing bifocals they can be difficult to get used to, and do sometimes make you feel dizzy.
