I am happy but disappointed.. happy because my eyes are the same. My Macular Degeneration condition has not made any progress neither have the cataracts first diagnosed in 2005. So that is all good, but I so wanted glasses and I would have bought some, but there weren't any red rimmed ones!
She showed me pink ones, but to me they're old ladies glasses! And some were like Me-maw's from young Sheldon's grand mother's and Dh and I burst out laughing when we saw them!
It was tipping with rain when we came out of the opticians so I donned my plastic hood, I might look an old lady in it, but I'm not getting my hair wet when I've paid to have it styled!
Obviously this is not me, I \bought 8 of these and yes they flatten my hair, but a brush through and my hair is fine,
Good news about your eyes. My mum had Macular degeneration, in the end she could hardly see at all and homed over 20 injections in her eyes. She also used to wear one of those rain hats, lol very 60"s, I didn't realise you could still buy them.
ReplyDeleteShame you couldn't find the right shade of frames for glasses, but good news that your eyes are still ok. I think the rain hat is a great idea too.
ReplyDeleteDisappointing about the frames. Hopefully you will find a pair you enjoy wearing, like we enjoy wearing glasses at all, lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they are called 'pixie hoods'. My ex Mother-in-law would wear one over her hat in the rain.
ReplyDeleteMy mother always had one of those rain caps at the ready! I haven’t seen one in a while.
ReplyDeleteThat's very good news about your eyes. I remember my Mum always having those rain hats to hand when I was a kid and being made to wear one if I was wearing a coat without a hood. I hated them as I am not a big hat fan and they always made me feel a bit claustrophobic.
ReplyDeleteGlad your eyes are stable. Sight is such a precious thing.
ReplyDeleteCould you buy some frames online and get your optician to put your lenses in those. Glad your eyes are ok though. I was diagnosed with MD last year, keep having to remember to wear my sunglasses (when the sun is out!) Take care. Xx
ReplyDeleteGood news about your eyes.
ReplyDeleteI think rain hats/hoods are a good idea.
All the best Jan
There must be other places to look for glasses. Keep looking if that's waht you want.
