you got no I just need to go on this side because I'm not wearing a contact lens in my left eye.

But you are in the right eye? Yeah. Why you what?

Because I have an opposite prescription in each eye. Right. And one of my eyes is amblyopic which means it's not

actually corrected by the contact lens so my left eye is a problem with the

nerve which means the contact lens only corrects it slightly it doesn't correct it fully

which means I can get away with wearing one in my right eye and not in my left eye if

for example I drop my lens and let it dry out and fail to notice that I've dropped it because I don't notice these things.

Is it not really disorienting to have like half good vision?

I've had it my whole life so you get used to it my eyes now work completely

independently like a gecko which is why I wear contact lenses instead of glasses because having a different

prescription in each eye means my eyes don't work properly and it just gives me a

really bad headache because they work separately.

Does anything about you work? Is there any one part to me that's actually... I'm totally fucked.
