I have been really having a problem seeing lately. I got my eyes checked in January. Back then the doctor told me that the prescription changes were so minor that she wouldn't even bother to fill the prescription. But I did because I couldn't see things, regardless what she said. My night vision was non-existant. I couldn't see road signs until I was right up on them, and usually missed my exit because of it. I couldn't see my kids at their sporting events... so I'd sit there for an hour or longer completely bored necause all I saw was a bunch of skin and flashes of color. I couldn't pick my own kids out of the group if my ife depended on it. So, yeah, I got new glasses even though the eye doctor told me the change was minor.

When I got the new glasses, I wasn't impressed with the improvement. She was right, it wasn't much, but it was something. I could now read street signs sooner and driving at night wasn't such a terror. I could also finally spot my kid in a group.

Well, the last few weeks I have been noticing a change in my eyesight. Now my "new" glasses are just as bad as the old ones. I can't see a blessed thing. Last night, Heather had soccer and I stood on the sidelines, looking looking looking for her. Then a second later, she called out to her team mate for the ball... she was standing RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. No more than fifteen feet. I gave up and sat in the car for the rest of the game. why bother even trying to find her? I won't mention how terrifying the ride home was... only that I missed the road I have turned off of a million times. DUH! I am having problems watching tv at night because the screen is all fuzzy.

I have an eye doctor appointment for tomorrow and hope against hope that everything's ok. I'm going to cry if they tell me that my new lenses are fine and that there is no change. What am I going to do? Is this "normal" for eyeglass wearers... am I being too "picky" (which is what my mom is calling it. She sees just as poorly as I do. But her prescription is at least two years old.) I remember always feeling as if my eyes weren't sharp enough, but lately its getting to the point where I'm worried about something seriously wrong with my sight.

Sigh.... I am miserable right now. Anyone with glasses feel the same way? Experience the same thing? Any help?
