44. Fantastic! I have eye issues too.
Sun Dec 7, 2025, 07:02 PM
Dec 2025

Luckily, we have the supermen of eyes here
in Austin, so I've resolved most of my issues
or am able to see well in spite of them...

nearsightedness -- got Lasik

cataract -- lasik in right eye

pucker in my right retina -- not a serious problem yet
but if it gets worse, the doctor can make glasses for it.

Ocular migraines... mostly resolved by taking enough
magnesium and riboflavin.

Ocular rosacea -- resolved with antibiotic ointment
and steroid drops.

And don't even get me started on the Meniere's in
my left ear. I've had the steroid shots in my ear,
and that's helped a lot. If it gets worse, I guess I'll
have to get the surgery, but I hope not.

Old age aint for sissies, that's for sure.
