     Kommentar till en text av MICHAEL LOO
Ärende: Re: glasses 699
=======================
-=> Quoting Michael Loo to Nancy Backus on 05-23-15  01:57 <=-

 ML>> but I think the rumors of the
 ML>> demise of my astigmatism are overstated, as I now
 ML>> see weird migrainelike patterns all the time,
 NB>> Not good.
 ML> It means that the astigmatism has not been properly
 ML> corrected - whether that's because the prescription
 ML> was wrong, or not exactly ground into the lenses, or
 ML> because the full fix is impossible, who knows. I will
 ML> be back in Boston in a couple months to discuss
 ML> things with the optometrist.

By then, any getting adjusted should have pretty much worked itself out,
and what's left might be errors or unfixables... 
 
 ML>> plus there are prismatic effects (colors resolving
 ML>> into primaries - i.e., stuff like green becoming
 ML>> bands of blue and yellow - when I am not looking
 ML>> straight in front of me). 
 NB>> That might be something to do with the lenses themselves...
 ML> Could indeed. One of the questions I will ask.

Good idea. :)

 ML>> in the midst of a whole lot of visual information
 ML>> that was not there before.
 NB>> That you should get used to, and begin to sort things out again...
 ML> It's beginning - the optimal focal distances for various
 ML> things have worked out, and a proper adjustment of the
 ML> position of the glasses (difficult until the nosepieces
 ML> get fixed in July) clears up the appropriate field and
 ML> blurs out others!

Progress.  :)
 
 ML>> The doctor and my friends have been unanimous,
 ML>> knowing me, in reminding me not to be impatient
 ML>> and that it could be up to a week before my brain
 ML>> gets optimally used to the new kind of inputs.
 NB>> Good advice... :)  After the cataract surgery, I was told it could
 NB>> take even longer to get used to some things... I still see the edges
 NB>> of the new implanted lenses when I'm in low light...
 ML> So will this persist, or will your eyes or brain
 ML> adjust and censor this out?

The first answer I was given was that the eyes/brain should adjust.  But
when it persisted, the answer I got was that sometimes it doesn't just
get censored out, but that eventually, the edges should get more cloudy
and not be so distracting...  I'm not sure how encouraging that really
is... ;)
 
 ML>> suggests, I might make a better driver than he,
 ML>> despite my visual deficits, still substantial. I
 ML>> thought I'd get a headache, but all I had to do was
 ML>> close my eyes when anything queasifying happened.
 NB>> Closing your eyes sounds like a good idea... ;0
 ML> Though on occasion things have become bad enough that
 ML> I have been forced to grab the wheel for a second and
 ML> gently guide us on the right path. That in my legally
 ML> blind days.

True, some days one just can't win...  ;)
  
 ML>> The crabcakes were as expected, less than jumbo,
 ML>> less than lump, less than sparkling fresh. My
 ML>> glasses had two interesting effects. First, as the
 ML>> correction is so strong (I'm a -14 unfixed) that
 ML>> everything is shrunk, the things looked even smaller
 ML>> than the 3 to 3.5 oz they are; also, I could discern
 ML>> now by sight the bready filler. 
 NB>> Oh, dear... ;(
 ML> Always was able to by taste, anyhow.

True... now you just have the confirmation... ;)

 ML> Funny thing. A nonzero number of friends have suggested
 ML> that I would be frightened off by them once I actually
 ML> was able to see what they actually looked like. So far
 ML> that has not happened.

Were they serious...?  perhaps, insecure...?

 NB>> ... Remember the seaweed is always greener in somebody else's lake!
 ML> I recall them having been plenty green when we went swimming
 ML> the other time.

True...  :)

... I got a job at a bakery because I kneaded dough.
