THE EYES HAVE IT in Postcards 4

Today was the eye doc day.

One last stitch was removed. I saw it and the truly tiny knot after it was out. He peered inside the right eye and said it was all good even while I was complaining about a reflection from the installed lens into my left eye. I think he hopes that will go away.

Three more days of eye drops to rinse that eye and come back in 6 months. Then I got a prescription for new glasses and was out the door. We will see how they work, and if they work well, I’m driving again. There’s a huge difference between the right eye and the left now. That might be a problem, and a prism has been installed in the left lens to correct for that. Four days and I am back in the pool.

Did I tell you that I gained ten pounds?

• Himself: He’s waiting till retirement and better insurance for more knee surgery. Today he started to chauffeur me to the eye doc, and he discovered a giant flatbed blocking our driveway. Hordes of men were lifting stuff up on our roof. We called a taxi. He refuses to install Aps.


• Myself: Shower, eye doc, discovered that both my blue pair of glasses can’t be used. Home, nap because I slept terribly again, and writing this. Dinner and meeting.
