Had an eye exam today. Actually I had both of my eyes examined. The doctor put some yellow stuff in them, then I had the joy of having my pupils dilated. Whee. Since my eyes are light-colored, apparently my pupils will be nice and wide for some time, giving me a more freakish than usual appearance. I'm wearing sunglasses at the office so I must look even more like a poser than ever before.

No signs of diabetic retinopathy, which is a very Good Thing. I still have severe myopia. The doctor was really pushing laser eye surgery on me, he mentioned it like three or four times. Since I have no astigmatism, this makes me an "ideal candidate". Since I'm incredibly squeamish, I told him "no way". "Nurse, fetch the patient a 'Killians'."
