Since the arrival of the Vision by Conran specs and the rapid glazing by Anglo Italian ( see previous post) it was just a matter of time before I put the OrthoK on hold to try out the new specs.
For those of you who don't know ( there can't be many) I am taking part in an Ironman triathlon later this year so I am in training for which the Ortho K comes in really handy. Anyway I took the plunge on Thursday night planning that I would be fine on Friday, slip in some -1.0 Daysoft UV lens I have over the weekend and be ready for specs by the new week.
After a hard training session I awoke on Saturday as sick as a dog. Fever, sweats, lack of balance the full monty.
Sunday was even worse, I felt like a drug addict going cold turkey.
I am a full-on OrthoK convert but I don't think even I would have stood the RGPs on my eye over the weekend, or even now.
So as it turned out I was a happy spectacle wearer once again.
