OK, I admit it, I'm old!

I went to the eye doctor today for a routine exam. I have had the same eye glasses prescription since high school - over 27 years ago! So, I guess it was time that I had a change. The unfortunate part, is not that my vision is that bad...my right eye is actually 20/20, and my left eye is 25/20. It's that I have a real bad astigmatism in both eyes. Give me time and my eyes focus on things pretty well, but time is not on my side, so to read or see clearly, I need to focus quickly. So, my loving doctor said to me "happy birthday, here's your prescription for bifocals". (My birthday was a few weeks ago). So, does that make me OLD? It's not that big of a deal I suppose...many people have them, but hearing that I needed bifocals brought back memories of Grandma. Eek!!!

On the flip side though, I do have a prayer request. I have to go back in a few weeks for more testing. The doctor said that my reading for glaucoma is up a little bit. In other words, I could have glaucoma. I really don't want glaucoma (well, no one wants it) but I honestly feel I'm just too young to have to deal with eye drops, medicines etc. So...I ask for your prayers - that when the testing is done, that they find nothing wrong with my eyes. Thanks so much!!!
