Stuttering during eye exam Anyone else DREAD doing eye exam where the optician tells you to read the letters on the wall? I had a full medical check up today and an eye exam was a part of it. I’ve worn glasses for almost 20 years and I’ve always force myself to pull through every eye exam because glasses are expensive and I don’t want to suffer having the wrong prescription but it still sucks every time. The conversation usually goes like this: Optician: “please read the letters out loud” Me: *struggle to pronounce the letters eventhough I can read it just fine* “I can read until the bottom row” Optician: *concerned/confused face* please read the letters out loud” Me: *struggles embarassingly* or *tells the optician I have a stutter* This is just one of the things that show how stuttering really affects almost every little part of our lives.
