For those anxiously awaiting the next part of my Christmas stories I laugh because no one really cares and that’s fine. I’m trying to avoid eye strain for about two weeks. I finally got round to making an optician appointment. I’d been putting it off but recently it’s gotten worse. Results are just as I expected. Short sightedness is exactly the same.
