I got my glasses lenses replaced!
The left side is perfect, which is good because it was far enough off before that I went to a concert in a smallish theatre last spring and couldn't read the text on the band's kick drum out of that side, and also it had a nasty scratch right down the centre from when I smacked myself in the face with my umbrella that one time. The right side seems to be ever so slightly fuzzier than it was before, or at least fuzzier than the left side is now; the optometrist said my prescription had changed slightly and at this point I can't tell whether that was a mistake or if my eye had been compensating for the focus this whole time and just needs to get used to not having to over-correct. (I get so many damn headaches from stress and poor sleep/eating that I'd probably only notice chronic eyestrain by its absence.)
The lenses were, unfortunately, expensive as shit, so I'm not sure what happens if it turns out to be the former and I need a new one cut. Especially since I told the eye people "nah, you can toss the old lenses."
