Time for my annual eye exam. Sitting in the waiting room typing this one. Rarely use my phone for posting. But it helps the time pass as I wait.
A nice waiting room with a fish tank. Kind of relaxing to watch the fish.
Found this Pixabay photo to share.
Plans for today anyone?

I will be going for my very own eye exam this coming December. But this time because I will be 65 by then, the exam is free of charge. Hourrah for little old me. With old age, there are some compensation that are worth it...

I hate eye exams. Every year I have one that takes an hour and a half. The 6-month one isn't as bad. I hate to wait! No plans for me today.

@CarolDM The yearly one takes 1-1/2 hours. I have to do several "tests"...one is a field of vision which everyone hates, pupils dilated, the "which one is better" game where they all look the same, etc. :-D

@LindaOHio Yes I had it all done today. But I really like my doctor and nurse.

Annual eye exam is something I have not done in more than 3 years.

@CarolDM that's good, is it possible to have a lower grade or it increases every year. My reading lens is 225 but I can still read using 175 lens.

@florelway I would think it changes every year but everyone is different.

Good luck with your eye exam.
My dentist has a huge fish tank in his waiting room and it's nice watching the fish while waiting.

I need to get back to the eye doctor...increasing age definitely has its down sides.

@CarolDM I've been wearing glasses since I was a teenager. Having to shift to bifocals a few years back was a bit of a reality check.
