I got new glasses.Zenni Optical now has support for prism lenses.  Although if you need both horizontal and vertical prism at once, you’re out of luck.  But supporting prism at all is a great thing.I ordered mine with vertical prism but without horizontal.  Because I need to know if the CellCept is working for my myasthenia.  And I can’t know that without having a pair of glasses without horizontal prism – because if the glasses correct my double vision horizontally, then I can’t tell what things would look like without that correction.So I got new glasses.And I took this picture.And my case manager said “Wow, you look like a cat who got too close to a camera.”And my evening caregiver just said “…wow Mel, holy crap.  Seriously?”It’s of course the ridiculous-looking selfies that I enjoy posting the most.  Whether it’s this, or hair that’s fluffed out so much from the humidity that it’s almost standing sideways, or other things like that.Oh and, for the record, the CellCept may well be working because a lot of the time I’m not seeing double.  Of course this doesn’t explain why my white cell count is elevated right now instead of like… low normal or suppressed, which is what I’d expect CellCept to do.  But my liver panel was normal (not even borderline, but solidly normal) for the first time in years, so yay?And meow.

Zenni Optical now has support for prism lenses.  Although if you need both horizontal and vertical prism at once, you’re out of luck.  But supporting prism at all is a great thing.

I ordered mine with vertical prism but without horizontal.  Because I need to know if the CellCept is working for my myasthenia.  And I can’t know that without having a pair of glasses without horizontal prism – because if the glasses correct my double vision horizontally, then I can’t tell what things would look like without that correction.

So I got new glasses.

And I took this picture.

And my case manager said “Wow, you look like a cat who got too close to a camera.”

And my evening caregiver just said “…wow Mel, holy crap.  Seriously?”

It’s of course the ridiculous-looking selfies that I enjoy posting the most.  Whether it’s this, or hair that’s fluffed out so much from the humidity that it’s almost standing sideways, or other things like that.

Oh and, for the record, the CellCept may well be working because a lot of the time I’m not seeing double.  Of course this doesn’t explain why my white cell count is elevated right now instead of like… low normal or suppressed, which is what I’d expect CellCept to do.  But my liver panel was normal (not even borderline, but solidly normal) for the first time in years, so yay?

And meow.
