@Carmie a welcome gift I am sure!  I wonder why your audio sense is so sharp?  For me, it is my sense of smell.


I grew up with an almost deaf mother, a hard of hearing father and brother and a sister who was deaf in one ear.

 

My younger sister has normal hearing and I and the oldest of my two brothers both have exceptional hearing.  

 

I have no reason why this is.  My sense of smell is pretty good too.  Now, if only I could see well.

Amazon may have different size covers.

@Carmie @I just had cataract surgery with amazing results.

@Lilysmom1   I had cataract surgery on my right eye about 20 years ago.  I had cataract surgery on my left eye yesterday.

 

I can see fine with my newly surgical eye, but it is quite swollen this morning.  The other eye was never swollen like this after surgery.

 

I am legally blind in my right eye after Lasix surgery.  If I wear a huge expensive contact lens, I can correct my vision to 20/30 in my right eye which I am happy with.

 

Anyhow, my eyes could be better.  I can't just jump out of bed and go.  It is a PIA to have to install a contact lens that sometimes needs to be inserted and removed several times to get it to fit right to be able to see.

 

I am happy I can see, but I wish it was easier.

 

I guess I am done complaining..........

This thread makes me doubly grateful for my hearing aids.  They're blue-toothed to my phone, so no need for AirPods or any similar devices.  At last an advantage to being hard of hearing.Smiley Wink

Re: Apple AirPods

[ Edited ]

I have four pairs of Air Pods. They are all I use. I use them all the time when talking on the phone. 

Funny story, I got a new pair after my divorce and I named them in my Apple account but for whatever reason they keep changing to My ex’s name Air Pods. After changing them to my preferred name for them countless times I gave up. My kids can see my location and devices and they laugh about it all the time.
