I have started an experiment! Only, not really. I put my contacts in today and I'm gonna try wearing them for a week to see how I get used to them. Normally, I wear glasses for everyday, and only use my contacts for special occasions. But I do have like, a year's worth of contacts that are supposed to be for everyday use while the glasses were for backup (but my glasses are so cool ;o;).
Anyway!
Still getting used to having peripheral vision, and the contacts have been in for nearly 3 hours. I have a tendency to blink out contacts, or they shift, so that's why I don't wear them more often. Plus, my eyes get dry and I can't find my bottle of eye drops. :/
This sort of vision is weird, because I keep trying to push my glasses up to adjust focus and poke myself in the face. Things are blurrier up close, which is kind of weird, since I'm nearsighted. And I also have astigmatism. F-fail.
Maybe things will be better once I get used this sort of seeing. Or I'll freak out, get a migraine, and switch to my glasses (as tends to happen).
Stay tuned!
EDIT...
For those who are curious, and for those who never believe me when I say I'm blind without my glasses on, my prescription is as follows (right off the contact boxes):
Right Eye: -8.50
Left Eye: -8.00
