    Who here wears lenses of any sort?

    Just how poor is your vision?

    Are you squinting at these letters right now???

    I don't wear glasses but probably should because my vision is getting worse in my left eye.

    Im supposed to wear glasses to drive, but I think the person who tested my eyes was a retard because I can see fine. I dont squint at all.

    I have reading glasses, but I don't wear them often. I don't think I really need them anyway, my vision is excellent.

    my vision is awful. the eye dr keeps encouraging me to get lasik, but i'm too poor, and insurance doesn't cover it, so it's probably not ever going to happen. i go back and forth between glasses and contacts.

    i have a pair of glasses, i get headaches trying to read the board in class and can't make out half of it anyway... though my vision isn't really too bad. i don't wear the glasses all the time, just class, after i've been on the comp a while, and when my eyes bother me.

    I wear binoculars, except when I'm driving, and then it's a telescope.

    Ive worn glasses since i was about 9 or 10. I cant see much without them and get all scared like a lost dear when i dont wear them.

    Also they are cool because they give me something to hide behind!!

    AND THEY MAKE YOU LOOK INTELECTUAL LIKE!

    **edit** yes i do have them on upside down in the first one :p

    Currently, I wear my glasses while typing and once in a while driving. If I would have worn them on a daily basis when I first got them, my sight would have improved greatly. However, I choose not to and it has only gotten worse. I cannot remember the actual numbers, but I am nearsighted.

    I was at the optometrist just yesterday. I'm blind as a bat and wear contact lenses mostly, but my eyes have become irritated by them and I need taruic lenses (for astigmatism), so I'm trying to use my glasses more.
