Night time.
My eyes are tired.
Itchy, dry.
They feel like my contact lenses have been in too long.
I keep thinking I should take them out before I go to sleep.
Then I realise I’m not wearing any…and laugh.
Then I realise that you normo-vision freaks have never had the joy of peeling the ‘front’ layer of your eye off and bathing the under layer with cool, clean saline; such as those of us who were contact lenses might.
I’ve also had a few moments of thinking “Oooh, I can’t see well, I’d better put my specs on.”
Do you poor f.ers really spend your days blundering around unable to manually adjust the focus on your eyes?
