My lenses are failing and I’m not talking about my camera lens.

I’m talking about my progressive lenses.

With all the photography processing that I got wrapped up in, I discovered my progressives were not able to keep up with me and my computer.

And I realize I’m getting a little older. I realize my eyes continue to fail. And for the first time, I got a pain in the neck from doing too much work on the computer.

Sitting on the computer for hours at a time, I realized for the first time that I have to tilt my head back to use the lower portion of my frames to be able to see the monitor.

Little did I know that could cause such pain. So much so, that for the last three nights I have not been able to use a  pillow.

And the only comfort I could get in the night was to sleep on my back with my head on the mattress.

And the last two days the pain in my neck was a constant nagging pain. I hated complaining to the hubs, but he could tell I was suffering. And all weekend long he continued to try to make me comfortable as best as he knew how.

But the sun did shine down on me today. While I can still feel pain when touching the area, I would have to say I’m 95% better.

Per the hubs request – I made an appointment with the optometrist this morning. The cool thing is this. When I arrived, he already knew my style and had a selection of frames pulled out just for me to get started. Turns out, I fell in love with his #1 pick.

How awesome is it going to be to have a pair of lenses such that I can work as many hours as needed on the computer? Epic, I declare, it’s going to be epic!
