    I havent had an eye exam in sooo long! I think the last time I took an eye exam was when I was getting my drivers license and that was years ago.

    I think its horrible! They are all up in your face looking at your eyes in a dark little room...so uncomfortable! Even more so when they put you in front of that little machine that blows air into your eye quiet unexpected.

    I like to mess with them when it comes to the color chart and tell them a different color than I'm seeing. It's also funny to misread the letters to them. Maybe that's why they try to adjust my prescription to 20 times stronger every time I go in.

  • Yeah.. my optometrist gets way too close when he's looking into my eye with that instrument he uses.

    Strangely, I don't feel uncomfortable, I feel an almost overwhelming urge to giggle. My girlfriend's the same. I have no idea why we get like that...maybe we're mental or something.

    The only exams I find uncomfortable are the yearly tests my doctor gives me.

    EW!

    No. What makes me uncomfortable is when the optometrist insists on doing what I pay the proctologist to do........
