Doctor, Doctor Part 5

Picked up the new bifocals Friday night. As it turns out, they cannot make bifocal contact lenses for me because my astigmatism (whatever that is) is too severe. So the eye doctor said that when I am wearing the contacts and need to read fine print, I should wear a pair of cheater reader glasses, 1.0 magnification. Went to the dollar store, got the glasses (Foster Grants - orginally $17.99 - now $1.00, thank you very much), and it works! The bifocals work really well too - just a little bit of dizziness at first, and now I can read fine print again! Yay!
