My eyes



Last week I decided to get my eyes checked. Instead of getting my eyes dilated I went for the relatively new eye scanner. Dilation is such an annoyance as you lose your sight for the better part of the day. I was biking that day and that was not an option as I live in Florida and the sun is harsh. The exam was fine enough. Doctor gave a prescription for transitions, meaning bifocals even though I can read well up close, focusing is slowing. I opted to get single vision and take the glasses off.

The doctor had images of my eye exam and made him email them to me. These are images from the inside of my eyes. The light is the opening to the eye. They are very healthy eyes, reported by my doctor. How cool is science.
