This is a status I wrote 6 years ago when ignorance was still bliss.

It came up on my memories on Facebook today. I don’t use facebook anymore, apart from updating my One Vision page there.

I wasn’t concerned really. As I thought I would know if there was something seriously wrong with my eyesight. Like as in all of a sudden everything would go black.. I didn’t really realise at that time, there was so much of a sight loss spectrum inbetween.

I knew something was amiss, but just thought that it was down to me being in my 40s and my eyes had aged. Along with myself ☺

So this is really when the first inkling of any trouble with my eyesight presented itself.

So you see. This can happen to anyone. Don’t take your eyes for granted. I wasn’t aware anything at all was wrong before this instance.

PICTURE DESCRIPTION facebook status. Went to opticians. Got some doody glasses and referral to eye hospital. Not a good day for someone with an eye phobia.
