Well, logically it makes complete sense but it feels like a small miracle for me anyhow. A little background info first: Kirk, Ruby and I have been going to the same eye doctor since we all started wearing glasses (3rd grade for me which is what...22 years-ish). I've gotten every pair of glasses I own from him and every single contact - from gas permeable to toric. I needed to order new contacts so I went in for my usual eye exam yesterday and Dr. Tou says to me "Have you NOT been looking at a computer every day recently?" I say "Um, yes, I've only been working part time since July and I quit working all together for a month now. Why?" He says "Because your near sightedness is actually better for the first time ever!" Woohoo!!! Both my eyes actually IMPROVED by 0.50!! I actually had to purchase contacts that were LESS intense! It was like music to my ears. Don't get me wrong, I'm still blind as a bat and my astigmatism is still the same. Left eye -5.75, right eye -6.25.
The living room carpet is going to be installed today - will post update later. I'm excited because Abby will finally have free range to crawl instead of just the living room rug and couch!

That's AWESOME!!!
When are you doing Lasik?
Can you even see the Big "E" on the eye chart? I thought I was blind with 4.25. WOW!
TJ - um, with no job, probably no lasik for me for quite a while. I'm ok with contacts though. Ruby was still wearing the gas permeable when she had it done.
that's good news! yeah.....i had not been able to see the big "E" in ages!!! i was at -8 and -6 and all i saw was a whitish screen with black spots on it.
