It occurred to me the other day that I don’t need to switch on the bathroom light when I go for a shower.
I’m myopic: short-sighted; for those who can read these things, my last glasses prescription was this:
| Sphere | Cylinder | Axis | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Right | -9.50 | -1.75 | 30.0 |
| Left | -8.75 | -2.50 | 175.0 |
So in the shower, without my glasses on, I can’t see a thing, really.
At night and early in the morning there is a gentle amber glow from the street lamps outside that gives me enough light in the bathroom to make out the outlines of the large, blurred items of furniture.
I know where everything is on the shower rack: shampoo, shower gel, shaving paraphernalia, etc.
So why would I need the light on?
Bingo! An instant way to save a few pennies.
