How is your eyesight?

[VisionofMilotic]

I have always had horrendous vision, was put in glasses as soon as I was in first grade when teachers saw that I could barely make out what was on the blackboard. I prefer contact lenses today, but still keep glasses handy too.

It's a near-sighted vision type- I can read without contacts if the text is right in from of me, say the book in my hand, but words blur out after a couple of feet away, so wouldn't be able to read a sign post, and I have to wear corrective lenses by law to drive- I am in the territory of legal blindness without them. I believe I am 20/200 in one eye, and the other is even worse.

What about my pc siblings, how good or bad are your eyes?

Not amazing, but not terrible. Reads anything at arm's length fine. Grows a little fuzzier beyond that. Gets around fine, provided there is nothing to read at long distances.

Might have good vision in dark places? Compares it against old people, though. Complains about bad lighting inside at, like, 4 PM sometimes.

My vision is 20/20, I'm pretty sure. Though, I do look at screens a lot, so I have since strained them, but other than that, my vision is perfect.

Horrible. I started wearing glasses at 4. im like -7 at one eye

Not good. I wear prescription glasses.

Probably made worse from being given prescription glasses as a child and not wanting to wear them.

As an adult these things are a god send. I love being able to actually see.

I'm legally blind if I should ever choose to drive LOL

not 20/20 that's for sure

i've been wearing glasses since i was 12

Not good! It started deteriorating when I was around 11-12ish. Heck, maybe even earlier. I think I am -2 in one eye and -1.5 in the other, so I always need glasses. Without them I'd get headaches multiple times a week due to eye strain. D:

my right eye cannot see far distances as much as my left eye. At some point all I see becomes blurry. Like I struggle to read what's on my laptop if I try using my right eye alone. I also find it weird that my right eye is far more sensitive that my left eye despite my left eye being the dominant one.

without my glasses concentrating makes me see double vision @_@

Not very good, I can read without glasses if I'm close to the text, but anything more than 2 feet is a blur to me.

I don't remember my exact scrip but it's in the -6.00 to -7.00 range (about ~20/600?), last I checked anyway. It's worse every time I go to the optometrist though so I haven't been back in a couple years lol, glasses are expensive and it feels like I 'outworsen' them immediately anyway so no sense in getting new glasses every year, I'm fine with things being a little bit blurry even with my glasses on.

Pretty bad nearsightedness runs in my family so it's never been a big deal to me, it was just assumed I would grow to need glasses and I'd have progressively bad sight my whole life. When I was a kid I actually didn't know adults could have 20/20 vision because nobody in my family does, I thought every adult I met who were not wearing glasses were wearing contacts and it was just something everybody deals with.
