A quick check in the local optician reveals that my level of short-sightedness has actually decreased but before I could go YAY, I found out that this phenomena could be translated into either of the following:
- due to spending too much of my time focusing my eyesight on close-by items, such as monitors, books, newspapers and such, this is according to the optician lah, not I merepek (spouting nonsense) one
- signs of old age (as usual), eyesight deteriorating at a much faster rate hence 'fixing' my short-sightedness, a condition known as 'lou fa' in cantonese, which actually should only start affecting an individual by the age of 30. Something like those elderly you see needing glasses for better clarity of neaby objects, newspapers, books and such
Let's see, my astigmatisme had also gotten worst, perhaps due to the countless hours spent facing the monitor or watching TV which I think I should spend less time doing and here I am blogging, such contradiction can only be achieved by yours truly, champion. There's no urgency in changing glasses but I was advised to do so as wearing one with the power higher than required would actually cause strain and tiredness to the eyes quickly, so they say.
Just for your information, according to the optician, again, having a high level of astig. is actually worse as it could cause tearing and pain due to straining on the eyes. So now you know.
And BTW, today's the exact date of the Hungry Ghost Festival, try not to stay out until too late aye? Prevention is always better than cure, lols.

Taken whilst atop the bridge towards Pandan Indah on MRR2 in the morning, it did made my day feel a little bit better, hope it will do to yours too.
