September 13 - Foggy Vision

Over the past few days I have had several spells of "foggy vision."  Fortunately for me, this hasn't been due to an additional eye condition. Rather, it has been due to actual fog. Lyle and I are staying on the Oregon coast where fog or mist isn't an unusual occurrence. Usually the fog dissipates with afternoon sunshine.

While my own eye condition primarily affects my central vision, I have found this full field vision cloudiness to be quite unsettling. I imagine that the mist in front of my eyes is akin to what it is like seeing through cataracts. It is good that these days that a cataract can be removed relatively easily with laser surgery.

Lyle and I both enjoy spending time on the Oregon coast. We both like walking on the beach. At low tide the sand is slightly damp and firm - just ideal for long walks. I especially like the wide expanse of sand. There are rarely obstacles in my path and I like the freedom of mobility without the necessity of using my white cane.

There is a picture with this post. It shows me standing on the beach with ocean waves in the background.
