Rubbing eyes, I look at the
computer screen. The letters are hazy. Picking up my bag I head for the
ophthalmologist’s. There are several others there before me.
I stifle a yawn. The wait is
long. I doze off.
A woman of 90+ with sparkling
bright eyes my grandmother, pours two drop of thick dark liquid in each eye,
from a bottle. The label read ‘Elaneer kuzhambu’ Dark tears rolling
down cheeks she says, “Use this daily. You won't need specs.”
Suddenly I hear my name called. I
wake up with a start. I wish I had heeded grandma’s
advice.
