I have myopia and astigmatism. 600 and 625 is my eye grade. I am wearing glasses since 2nd grade (100+ eye grade). I'm not sure, but maybe my eyes are like this since I was born. It has gotten bad in college and became worst in law school since there were several cases to read, not to mention that I was both full time employee and student back then. As expected, my eye grade doubled, big time. In my lifetime, I never had a memory of seeing the world clear without glasses. Too frustrated, I even wished to experience it AT LEAST ONCE when I was seven. I just want to know how it feels like. JUST ONCE, AT LEAST ONCE. But miracle didn't happen. However, as I grow older, believe me or not, I became grateful for my eyes. I may not see the world clearer as I wish, but I am grateful that I can see, this is the greatest miracle. I am able to identify the colors, shapes, and see wonderful faces. And that is somehow enough for me. I would love to undergo lasic surgery in the future, but it isn't a necessity. Maybe someday, but not a priority. Why would I complain that I cannot clearly see if others can't even have the chance to see what we see? #journal #thoughts #myopia #lasic #lasicsurgery #thoughts #life #grateful #acceptance #miracle #quotes #quotestoliveby #eyeglasses #eyeglassesph #story
