I have a Clairol make up mirror. It's completely self contained. It has an easal like stand on the back so you can adjust the angle. It opens up with a left and right mirror. The center mirror spins around so you have magnification and normal. There is a flourescent light on the left and right with colored lenses for home, office, daytime and evening light so you can see how your makeup looks under different lighting conditions all you do is just dial it up. They are great!

P.S. Be careful of that magnification, it can scare the living daylights out of you first thing in the morning.

Ha, ha, that's so true,  i can be pretty scary first thing in the morning.  I know it's not a good thing when the cats run off...

Terri, if you don't mind me asking, how did you lose your sight in your right eye?  I am hearing impaired and have often wondered what life would really be like if I lost my hearing completely in either ear.

Hello all,  I am new here and came across this thread with great interest.  I also wear contacts and suffer Dry Eye problems.  Currently, I alternate between the lenses and normal spectacles and it seems to have dimished the problem. As for Spiro, I was taking them ( off prescription ) and had a stroke, this forced me off them until the cause was identified.  As it turns out, I had blood pressure so high, I was lucky to survive and the doctors suggested that I avoided diuretics of all kinds because my body could not handle the water loss  .

I do not wish to scare anyone taking Spiro, I had an underlying problem which had consequences far beyond any transition issues. 

I used to wear contacts all the time, but since I started on Spiro contacts bother my eyes in a major way, so I no longer wear contacts.

Hi Natalie, Nice to see you. Congrats on the one month and three weeks to surgery. You must be looking forward to get it all behind you and come home a complete woman at last. I send prayers that all goes well.
