Optometry Woes

Going to the eye doctor is stressful because I feel like I’m going to get the answer wrong to a question without a right answer. “Is this lens better, worse or about the same?” my doctor will ask and I’ll struggle to remember the subtle differences between lens 1 and 3, followed by the nuances that made lens 2 stand out from lens 4. And, since there is truly no wrong response to a question only I can know the answer to, I realize my stress level over an eye exam is both A) stupid, and B) probably indicative of some deeper issues. But dammit if I don’t still worry.
