I got 20/20 vision the last time I got tested in 2013. But I'm supposed to wear glasses I haven't worn in 5 years or so because I have a myopia, which I think got way worse. I can read things from 5-6 feet from me, I can watch things from a distance without looking blurry. I have problems whenever the professor puts up a presentation on the screen or when he writes stuff on the dryboard. I need to get in the first row to read it properly, as going second row or further makes a slightly blurry mess. I need glasses to look at a distance, that's all.

I'm remember being told that I was -3.00.

I have great/normal eyesight.

I also work in the optical industry (contact lens manufacturing) so seeing all of you with poor eye sight just tells me that I won't have to worry about my job any time soon. :)



I wore glasses time to time, mainly just to see far distance (driving/watching movies), but I had laser eye surgery last year and now everything is just so much better. Freedom.



Not great but not terrible either. I can see but I can't make over fine details over long distances so I need glasses especially for driving and my university lectures.



Not good.

Had glasses for about sixteen years now, since I was, I think, 12. Maybe 13. Anyway, tried contacts for a year or two half a decade ago but I didn't really liked it much, I mean it's convenient to not having to wear glasses, but they really strained my eyes at the end of each day.

I need glasses for further away, everything beyond 1 to 1.5 meters becomes increasingly blurry. Don't know how the US system with "20/20" thing works, but in our scale I have -3.00 more or less. The left eye being noticably better than the right though; -2.00 on the left, -3.25 on the right. They get worse every time I get it checked, sadly, don't remember what I had when I first got my glasses but it was probably still in the -1's.

I blame gaming and tv.

For reading though they're still great. I can read the tiniest letters perfectly clear. I would need to take off my glasses to see more clearly up close.

Well, I don't need glasses, so I'm good. I also eat my carrots, so that's better

I'm slightly nearsighted, not a big deal though and almost always wear my glassses.

And i'd appreciate not to be eaten. Wont improve your eyesight anyway. :-p



Should bookmark this thread for cross referencing with all the 720p vs 1080p vs 4K threads :)
Even useful for the video games looking better than real life threads!

If you're not sure of your eye sight, get glasses. Much better upgrade than any new tv or monitor! Except maybe some girls might not looks as good as you had imagined...
