End of the evening i end up spending over 200 bux.... how you ask? well i'll tell you even if you didn't ask
So i get into the office and start asking what my coverage covers and how much copay i have to do and blah blah all this new insurance lingo and im like ok sounds good exam and new contacts will cost be like 50 bux perfect.
I get in there and after like 25 mins of doing my exam he gets the right perscription and boom my contacts are ready for me to try on. I put them on and then i try to read the screen and something is wrong....
Its like really blurry for some reason and i told him i can't read the line.... when i blink sometimes it gets better but then it gets bad again.
"strange" and he ponders.
So he tells me to rest my chin on this thing and starts looking at my eye again and then is like ok i need to put this crap in your eye to make it easier to see so he puts yellow and green dye into my eye and made my eyes go numb so weird.
He tells me hes going to take some pictures of my eye and inside of my eyelids to show me something.
So i have this condition and iono what its called cus its a confusing name. Its at the minor stages so its not harmful but it could get much worse if i don't treat it now. My eyelids have these bumps from irritation or allergy (most likely irritation) and it keeps pushing my contacts down so that it doesn't cover my pupil evenly hence the blurriness no matter how strong the prescription cus its just not covering my eyes properly.
So now im getting worried ok its good that my eyes are just in the beginning stages so how do i fix it the quickest and safest... and he said don't wear your contacts and use your glasses if you can and put ice on your eyes 3 times a day for a few weeks.
So this is when it gets bad I just paid an extra 40 bux to do extra stuff on my eyes to get examined for contacts then i learned i should get glasses and the ones i have now are so old and outdated that i can't use them for everyday use so i gota get new lenses and frames then the lenses have to have like coating and blah blah to proetect from computer screens uv rays glare anti scratch blah blah and i just see the numbers going up and up and up.
So in the end i paid over 200 bux for new glasses and ONE box of contacts since i paid extra for the contact examination might as well get some new contacts as well.
Cons:
I now have to wear glasses and its going to get some getting used to.... boy are you guys in for a surprise when i get back
I spent over 200 bux when i was supposed to spend 50
I gota ice my eyes now throughout the day which is pretty annoying
Pros:
saved my eyes from getting further damaged and potentially having to go through complicated medical procedures
Im thankful that this doctor found out what was going on cus that would have sucked if i went blind or something or had to go to the hospital but the price i paid is now i gota pull off wearing glasses and look like a dork.
Better a dork then blind?
