I went to see an optometrist. The doctor told me that I'm nearsighted and have a slight astigmatism in my right eye. I asked her if there is any connection between my vision and falling asleep while I am driving. She informed me that being a nearsighted person, trying to see the objects that are far away at night makes my eye muscles work too hard. She explained that my tired eye muscles that have been working too hard will eventually try to rest to gain thier strength back. That's why I sometimes fall asleep while I'm driving. What an interesting fact I've learned! She told me that wearing these glasses will help me not to fall asleep when I am driving, especially at night. I should keep them in my car. I'm wearing my glasses in my room in this picture just to take a picture of me with my very first pair of glasses. I really like the frame. kkk ;)
