four-eyes

i'll wear glasses for a few hours at a time, when i need to look at lots of small things within an arm's reach away. slowly, the edges of the world feel like they are bowing less; i am astonished at the resiliency of my visual cortex.

i'm not convinced this is making my life better, yet; as an additional complication, though, the world seems duller when i take them off. is this because i'm now expecting sharper edges, fuller shapes, higher contrast, and cannot tolerate my previous fuzzy vision, or is this because my eyes are so used to processing the world through these asymmetric lenses?
