Why is the grass always greener on the other side of the fence? All last summer and autumn I used my ortho K and longed for the opportunity to wear glasses. So what happens? I stop using my Ortho K and the heavens open. It rains and it still keeps on raining……
After last night’s foray in the dark I wore my specs out on Henry’s night time walk. Aren’t specs good. After six months of Ortho K I have forgotten what crisp night time vision is like. After last night’s feeble torch I took along my famous super bright LED bike light as well as for [...]
By Tuesday evening I had just about lost at last the final dioptre of the OrthoK but didn’t wear specs or contact lenses for Henry’s walk. I usually go across a rough piece of ground so Henry can pretend to sniff out foxes. I also took a daft little torch I bought for one of [...]
