Law students are normally a myopic sort. Take a look around sometime. Notice most everyone you know wears glasses or contacts. Not only do these people need vision correction, without it many of these students are really blind. I am the exception to this rule. I've always said this is a sign that perhaps I shouldn't have gone to law school. I should have flown jet planes. My vision was just that good. I had worried that as I was getting older and having subjected myself to a few years of late night reading tiny print law books that perhaps I had damaged my precious eyeballs. I then realized that I hadn't had a full eye exam in 15 years. So having a bunch of free time, I took it upon myself to get myself to an eye doctor and get the peepers checked. I shouldn't have worried. I have perfectly healthy eyeballs that can see 20/15. I did get the joy of dilating eye drops. I love taking my perfectly healthy eyeballs and making them feel all weird and ruining my eyesight for an hour. You sit there in the waiting room and you can't read anything and really can't look at anything. So I whined and complained until it was over. Luckily I don't have to do this again for a couple years. Yeah, I'm a big baby. But a big baby who could fly jet planes.
