cpragman@atpfm hope Marco had an uneventful drive for thanksgiving. But if it was eventful, that it is a good story for the show

@atpfm There *is* a solution for Marco's eye problem, and it's his favorite kind: Throwing money at it: Laser eye surgery! (I haven't finished listening yet, so if that comes up and I haven't reached that point yet: oops)
Jon Mullins@atpfm Eight Point Eye Stretches, 4 Corner Saccades, Dolls Eyes with Mirror. These exercises for the eyes did wonders for my near and mid vision. Combined with glasses with prism I was able to finally get my vision with glasses to 25/20.
I use progressives for driving and reading but I have a separate pair for computer distance. My eyes feel brand new now instead of collapsing around 7:30-8:30p.
sli_muc@atpfm two weeks into my first pair of progressives.
The one thing I learned so far: I have to move my head a lot more and further. Up and down - to find the sharp area for a given distance - and left and right a lot, since the “useless" area of those lenses is right and left middle to lower area.
You basically have a T-shaped area to look far.
btw. -5.75, +2 here; @marcoarment you haven’t seen warping yet 😂 I almost lost my lunch within 1 minute of trying the glasses first time
