Contacts

Finally, I started wearing my contact lenses everyday. I just got them done when I was in India during summer. I have been using glasses since 11th grade and never thought about contacts then. My greatest fear was putting something ,foreign in my eye. My family has a history of weak eye sight and I am extremely scared when it comes to anything to do with vision. My sister has been using contacts for a long time now and she is younger to me. I never , kind of got the courage to put them in. This time back home, I realized that contacts will help me putting my power constant. My work and play revolve around reading. So it is impossible not read. But according to my Ophthalmologist, reading is making my power change a little bit. So I decided to be brave and made the contacts. It worked fine at home. After coming back, I put them away safely. But never dared to use them frequently. Last week I had an encouraging conversation with a favorite professor who uses contacts constantly and finds no difficulty in reading or working on computer. This encouraged me to wear them all the time and guess what it's not that difficult. In fact it's easy without glasses on my nose and best part is I get to use fancy goggles which I never could wear. Thank you professor, for one more great gift!!
