Eyeballs

If any of you happen to remember THIS POST, you learned that my eyes are too big for my eyelids so I basically have dry eyes all the time. You also learned I hate the word lubricated, but that's beside the point.

Lets rewind here to the first time Spencer saw me sleep & I woke up to him looking like this:
Because I "Sleep with my eyes open"
My doctor says my eyelids only close about 93% of the way. Result=red eyes.

Last time I was at the eye doctor he gave me 5 different eye drops to try.
None of them worked. Well I had another eye appointment this week and found out Plan B is eye gel. (Plan C is a capsule in eye ducts to close them off & plan D is Restasis)
Here I am at the eye dr.
A little disappointed I don't get the whole 9 yards this time.

SO...
Basically right before bed I have to put gel in both of my eyes, but it also blurs my vision. Win/lose situation I've got here ladies & gentlemen!
Look at those googley suckers just waiting to be lubricated.
This gel stuff is OTC & I was CLEARLY a little nervous about it. (see picture..) But I'm not even kidding it's one of God's gifts to earth. If any of you have dry eyes try this stuff- you won't have to use eyedrops all day! It's called Refresh PM- & it practically makes you blind for the night. I was told if I woke up and couldn't see, I used too much the night before.

(Which is what happened a couple days ago when I woke up blind & terrified..)
.NBD.

 BTW, check out those practically blonde eyebrows.. an eyebrow post coming soon!!

A Busy Week

This week was totally crammed and packed with every event we could possibly fit into our schedule! With Spencer working, going to school & Coaching Woods Cross High Lacrosse, we feel busy as is!

THIS WEEK:
 
I had my usual laser hair removal appointment.
(The numbing process makes my arms fall asleep. I think I'm the only human being in the world that loves that tingling limb sensation.)
Which is one of the reasons I love my hair removal appointments. Other than the obvious.

I met the rest of Spencer's family.
This was totally fun and I loved them all!

We Celebrated 7 months of marriage!
(and the next day we celebrated the year date from when Spencer proposed)
Still obsessed with my flashy left hand bling.
 
We went to a wedding
We got to go to the Salt Lake Temple for Brad & Tanda's wedding.
Talk about a stunning bride. She had big pretty earrings on that reminded me of a Holiday Barbie. I wanted to steal them.
 
 
THIS is when the real fun started. 
Yesterday I had an eye appointment- first one EVER.
I was having some problems with my eyes for about a month straight. They were so bloodshot it looked like I was all hopped up on something good. They started to hurt and I'd wake up and couldn't even look in the mirror.
 
If you know me at all, you know I hate any sort of doctor's office.
The sterile smell alone makes me sweaty.
I sat in the chair and saw the mirrors in front of me tilted at just the right angle and the ugly striped wallpaper made me feel like I was in a fun house. I thought I might barf.
 
Thankfully this was put on my face shortly after. I was pretty amused.
 
The eye doctors and assistants checked my eye pressure, dilated my eyes and checked my googlers out.
TURNS OUT
My eyes are "much larger than the average adult eyeballs."
Apparently there's "more surface area that is effected by different elements"
The doctor told me to close my eyes and asked if I could see a light shining. It was pretty dang bright. I said yes, and his response was, "haha you aren't supposed to!"
MY EYELIDS don't completely cover the surface area of my eyeballs.
 
When my eyes were completely dilated I started to get a little claustrophobic. I've never not been able to see something up close and it made me panic about getting old.
 
I also took a picture  of my dilated pupils to look at later and I felt like Lady Gaga in her Bad Romance Vid.
 
As you can see from my collage of instagram photos I thought this was quite the event.
 
I was given a few different eye drops to try, if they don't work they're going to have to give me a prescription for restasis.
Hopefully they work- I like my googlers nice and lubricated.
 
p.s. I hate the word lubricated.
