Pattern Altitude
Ok..I've been noticing lately that I have to hold documents a little farther away from me to see them clearly. I figured, ok, I'm getting to the age that near vision should be failing a little. I'm not happy about it, but that's life. I've worn contacts for over 20 years and my Rx has been pretty much the same that whole time (they were originally prescribed so I could see far objects clearly.. is that far sighted?? I always get the near/far sighted stuff confused). .
I went to the eye doc today and she tells me that the reason things close up are blurry is because my vision has improved! She explains that my near vision is being over-corrected by the contacts. She prescribes a new pair of contacts with less correction and poof! words jump off the page now.. and I still seem to see as clearly at a distance as ever.
I didn't know it was possible to have your vision improve without it involving cutting or lasers or what not... is that common? (not that I'm complaining).
