I tried not to define myself by the limitations of my severely lacking in the seeing department. I've had hard contacts since I was 1 and a half. I wouldn't allow myself to be removed from gym class when they had balls involved. I can't catch really well since I don't have depth perception. But I didn't want to be limited. Dammit. Of course, that doesn't help because now I'm skittish around balls.

A year ago, I finally have glasses that work with the one eye I can see out of. They're not as good as contacts, but my eyes haven't been liking contacts for the past couple of years so, then doc said glasses.

It was a weird shift.

I find though I like glasses better. I don't have to clean them everyday and night. I don't have lose them inside my eyeball and pry them out.

I can just put them on and go.

Heh.

Chants: I am not my disability.
