.:: Verdict Fr The Optometrist ::.
Visited the optometrist during lunch to check if i was ok to wear contact lenses again....thought of wearing the daily disposable typeAfter checking my eyes thoroughly using all the gadgets he has, he concluded that I'm still having the scar of the corneal ulcer.....he wouldn't stop me from buying the lenses but he wouldn't encourage me to be wearing them for long hours.....as the lenses would rub against the scar each time I blink and it might aggreviate the old wound again.....
I explained to him the need to wear lenses is when I'm wearing fullface helmet for my motorbike riding trips, which I find a great inconvenience of wearing specs......
However, after hearing his verdict, I sort of 'chicken out' to buy the lenses....so i just told him that would consider it first....
Anyway, i haven't even tried putting on the glasses while wearing the fullface helmet.....which i did just now and it wasn't much of a hassle after all.....just needs practice ....
Conclusion : It will still be a while for me to have the guts of wearing contact lenses again!
