Hey Doc, What's This Machine Do?

Curious about all the machines at your eye doctor’s office? 🤔 This month, we’re spilling the tea on a popular machine, the slit lamp. 🫖

Um this may be due to me being neurodivergent so hypersensitivity and um I know I have irlen syndrome but um this actually is really painful for me since I was young enough to remember and my eyes water a lot... Any idea why this hurts like hell other than what I've stated 😅cause I did not get a good reaction from the person I had this done by when I said it hurts... I've had a few side eyes thrown my way and a possible eye roll but as stated my eyes water a lot so I couldn't exactly see well one time but her constant side eye to me as I said this was way to obvious... And I've been left feeling like telling people in medical professions I'm neurodivergent is not helping me but making it seem okay for them to do that(I mean, 'okay' to side eye me and give weird looks 'like yeah right') because it's actually scaring me now cause I'm thinking something is wrong with me cause it hurts a lot to do this test and other people aren't having any pain... So any info would be great... Like is there a better way to go about approaching the convo of I'm neurodivergent and have irlen syndrome is this supposed to hurt like god damn hell 😅😢for me personally I'd rather spend a year with period cramps 24/7 that take this test again... That's my comparison for pain on this personally...😅Just a note it literally feels like my eye ball is burning when I have this test

Ok guys once you get to the part where you have to compare the lenses for your glasses lense.. It is important to be as 'accurate as possible because there is a wrong&right' answer
& you want to pick the correct answer each time kay?

so you get the clearest lenses possible that will last as long as possible.. alrighty ✌
