I Need Glasses

I have been having trouble seeing the blackboard.

Everything is blurry.

I keep getting headaches.

I told my mother about it，and she made an appointment with the optometrist.

I went to a place where they made me read words and letters on a chart.

Some of the words were big，and some were very small.

I tried to read everything，but sometimes I couldn't see some of the small letters.

The optometrist would cover one of my eyes while I read the chart.

Then，she would cover my other eye.

She even put some drops in my eyes.

I asked the optometrist if I had passed or failed the test.

She laughed，and said that it wasn't the kind of test that you passed or failed.

She was just trying to find out if I needed glasses.

I did need glasses.

My mother and I looked around.

There are many pairs of frames.

I wanted something that was in style.

I tried on many pairs of frames.

Some of them looked good on me，and some of them looked really funny on me.

I finally chose a frame that was my favorite.

I gave them to a lady who did some measurements.

She told me to come back on Friday to get my glasses.

On Friday，I got my glasses.

My friends like them.

They said I looked smart in my glasses.

I wore them to school on Monday，and I was able to see the blackboard clearly.

I didn't realize how much I hadn't been able to see.

Now I don't get headaches anymore.

I'm glad that I had my glasses.

Everything is a lot clearer now.
