so this is them...



it has nothing, absolutely nothing, to do with my personal feelings toward wearing progressive-slash-bifocal lenses, or whatever the heck they're called. it has absolutley nothing to do with conceit, or pride, or age, or even denial. it just has to do with me having to search for the tiny reading portion of the lens and never being able to find it. it just has to do with me having to move my entire head from left to right when reading so that i didn't lose that seemingly microscopic portion of lens once i did find it. it just has to do with walls, and floors, and spatial elements distorting every time i moved my head. it just has to do with things going fuzzy if i only moved my eyes to see. it just has to do with angles going from 90 degrees to 38 degrees if i didn't tilt my head just right. it just has to do with me constantly feeling like i did as a kid when i put my mum's glasses on and it felt like i was stepping across a floating floor. it just has to do with balance or a lack thereof. that is why i returned my glasses and had them change out the other lenses for just simple, straightforward, single focus, distance lenses...so i could actually see!
