It's true, it's true I tell you!

I have to now wear my spectigals to do anything on the puter. One minute I can see, next minute I'm blind as a bat Well, not exactly blind.......don't want to over do it! Just can't read anything.

Well you shouldn`t strain them any more, get him to make you a nice drink and sit and relax and rest your eyes for a while, hopefully they are just tired and will return to normal.

You know we love you Matt!

Sorry to hear that you're tired. Me too, mind you not from moving oak beams but from psychologically stressfull week.

Going to rest my eyes a little bit now. Will be back later on

Your eyes have probably not adjusted from the strong sunlight so your pupils are likely to be still dilated when you went on the computer.

As they adjust you should get clearer vision.
