Eye Floater
Jan. 1st, 2025 07:58 pmBefore Christmas presents as we know them came into fashion, it was the custom of Tudor nobles, according to what I have read, to exchange gifts on New Year’s Day. My left eye has evidently decided to revive this olden custom, by giving me an eye floater on the first day of 2025. I had read of eye floaters, but I don’t believe that I have ever experienced one myself. They are basically harmless, although seeing one drift in my visual field is a minor annoyance.
I will let my optometrist or her staff know about this when I go in for my next appointment, currently scheduled for March, or if I observe the indications of real trouble, I will make an earlier appointment.
And I posted about exercise the other day. In addition to walking and stair climbing, I managed a hundred crunches on Monday, two sets of forty push-ups each on Tuesday, and a hundred and fifty crunches today. I never was an Olympic caliber athlete, or even the star of fourth grade recess softball, nor will I ever be, but I am trying to fight off the sarcopenia that tends to come with advanced years. Eye floaters come too, it seems.
