A big fear of mine…

…is when I fall asleep with my glasses on. It happens often enough. The big fear is that they will fall off my face in the middle of the night, and then I’ll roll on them and break them. Once I can very close to doing just that.

If Mike is still awake when I nod off, he will remove my glasses and put them into their case. But if he nods off first, I’m out of luck.

I know that now there are contact lenses that you can sleep in…something that didn’t exist 20-something years ago when I tried contacts. But honestly, I just didn’t feel comfortable sticking something onto my eyeball. So I went back to glasses.

And now there’s Lasik eye surgery. I keep seeing commercials for it on TV.  It sounds scary, but I hear it is fast, safe, and painless.  I’ve sometimes thought about going to one of those free consultations that I see advertised, to get an opinion as to whether or not I’d be a good candidate for it.

But we just don’t have the money for it right now, and it’s not something insurance will pay for…even if we had GOOD insurance (i.e., something other than Cigna).

On the other hand, we might be able to get a payment plan…
