Self-portrait Challenge: Contrast Week 3

I have been wearing glasses/contacts for about 22 years now (and yes, saying that I have been doing anything for over 20 years makes me feel ancient). The possibility of having 20/20 vision is completely foreign to me now. Seriously, I kind of think peope with perfect vision are a little weird. But it is also a little weird that I wear these lenses every day that completely change my perception if things. Without them, my world us pretty damn fuzzy. The picture above is actually a pretty good representation if what my world is like without my glasses/contacts and what happens when I put them on.

Going to the optometrist is so much more high-tech now than it was when I was a kid. I went to get a new prescription for contacts yesterday. They took a picture of my retina. Vain as I am, I love seeing parts of my body not normally visible. When I broke my clavicle a few years ago, I secretly loved looking at my x-rays.
