My right eye has been bothering me for a few weeks, so I decided to go to the eye doctor to get them checked. I assumed I'd hear what I always hear when I go to any health care professional:
"You're fine. Just rest, eat healthy, and drink lots of water."
However at least that calms my fears and I go back to being a much more subdued hypochondriac than before.
Today, however, I discovered that I was NOT being a hypochondriac, however there is something amiss in my right eye.... I heard I have "a stigmatism" - which my dear husband just informed is one word. Why does he know this? He has them too! So now we're astigmatism buddies, and we are getting a good chortle about it.
The doctor said I have a "very very minor astigmatism" which has been causing the awkward feeling in my right eye, in addition to eye dryness which can partly be cured with .... drinking lots of water. (I knew I'd hear it!)
So now to decide whether to invest or glasses or not.... decisions decisions. I've never been so glad to hear something was wrong with my health!
