Have something to be glad about

With all of my health problems it is really nice to find something to be glad about. When I last saw my opthomoolgis a few days ago she told me my eye pressure was very high. Not quite to the point of being Glaucoma, bet getting close. She decided to put me on some eye drops to control the pressure anyway to head off future problems with my eyes. She also told me that the medication can change the color of your eyes. I thought to myself "Yeah right".

Well I have only been using the drops for a couple of days so far but I have noticed my irises have darkened a little bit. Have very light colored blue eyes I always hated to go outside on sunny days because the light would hurt my eyes. But now I can go outside on a bright sunny day and don't have to squint and my eyes don't hurt for the first time in my life. Make me almost wish I had developed this problem when I was a kid. :)

So how do you trim eye lashes? Especially if you need to wear glasses to see the eye lashes?

you know my hubby has the same type of drops...they said it could change the color of his lovely blue eyes...maybe make them turn brown...which is OK too...

we have noticed that his eye lashes get bushy and long...he has too trim them once in awhile, he says they get itchy ...watch out for that...

take care
