Things Done Today & Eyeglasses Wrong

I got several things done today. I picked up my glasses and they cleared things up, but it's not right. If I hadn't been talking to this one man, I wouldn't have thought about it but as we talked I said, "You know, it's like my astigmatism is better, but the distance isn't any better, and things are larger when I wear them instead of smaller and allowing me to see farther!"

So he said probably I wasn't used to them or eyes change. So I was thinking about it and yeah! they were NOT like my old glasses.

I claim to notice everything, and my own body, and be in tune with these details, and not delusional so I went to the eye place and I had the exam at one place and then another place for frames but they were sent out to be done and someone did them WRONG.

They didn't correct my near-sightedness. Just the astigmatism. So no wonder.

Something about my lenses being corrected to 50/50 eyesight instead of 20/20. But on the thing it says 25/25 and I want at LEAST 20/20 if not better! Something about minus 50. I don't know. Anyway, some obviously very wrong prescription.

I'm glad I was talking to this man today or I wouldn't have even checked. He said nothing about my glases, just said he'd had his eyes dilated and I said oh yeah, I just got new glasses and then I began ruminating with myself, or with him, about how I loved how much crisper everything was...and...(taking glasses down and then back up)...how...(hmmm, that actually looks LARGER but..)...how, yeah, it just makes everything so much easier to (taking glasses off and down and up and noticing...) HEY! I can't SEE ANY FURTHER THAN I COULD BEFORE! (mumbling to self...it's like...down and up with glasses and then talking to man) "It's like it's not blurry or as fuzzy, but I can't see any further (to myself thinking, "what are these? BI-focals?!)
