I can remember being a very small child, sitting outside the school nurse’s office, waiting for my turn to take the eye exam. I memorized the chart on the wall down to the letter, just because I didn’t want to wear glasses.
But one year the chart on the inside of the office turned out to be different than the one on the outside.
I despised that woman with every fiber of my little being.

A few years ago I was diagnosed with an eye disease that could potentially lead to blindness.
And please, no hugs, well-wishes, etc., necessary. It’s checked on a regular basis (had it this weekend), and that’s not the point of this post.

This is basically a public service announcement, a reminder for those who procrastinate, or hate going to doctors if it can possibly be avoided.
It can’t.

An annual eye exam is a small price to pay for your vision. Trust me.
If it’s something you don’t do, please consider making it part of a yearly routine.
If it’s something you haven’t done, please make an appointment. Soon.

Thank you.
