Do you wear glasses?

[cIementine]

I've only had glasses for just over a year.
I wear them most of the time.

 

[ams]

Nope! I think I'm the only person in my family that doesn't!

I love how many people voted yes. I damaged my vision when I was 16-17 by playing an app on my iPod Touch for extended hours in a pitch black room on a bright little screen. I've never done anything that stupid since.

Bad eyesight is more often genetic, not from eye strain. Odds are you ruined your eyes by your ancestry.

I don't wear them, but I need to get reading glasses- everything up close is getting a bit blurry, I have to hold stuff away from me to read it properly. And i used to have vision that was even better than 20/20, dammit.

 

[mogyay]

yeah, but i only ever wear them in in class or at the movies

Eh, I'd have to disagree. My vision started becoming blurry around the time I started that ridiculous late night habbit. I honestly don't see how I couldn't damage my eyes by staring at a tiny, bright screen in a completely dark room. Especially if I didn't blink enough. While I do agree it could have happened later from genetics, I think this sped up the process. I noticed heavy technology users tend to have glasses or wear contacts.

Disagree all you want. It's a proven myth. There are symptoms from prolonged computer use in bad lighting, but it's eye strain problems not nearsightedness/farsightedness.

I don't have any currently, but I've been noticing that it takes a few seconds to focus on things like in class when I go from looking at my notes to looking at the board, when I'm driving & look at a sign, etc.

It probably won't be long. :<

 

[King Dorado]

even today i had to ask the clerk in the store to read the small print for me on a box...

 

[Cou]

i only really have to for my right eye, so as long as my left eye can see fine, i rather not wear my glasses at all :/

 

[Yuni]

Yes, just to look at boards and such when they use tiny font.

 

[3skulls]

I have some. I only have to wear them when I look at screens for an extended period of time.

 

[KaydeeKrunk]

I was supposed to go with my mom the other week to go get glasses but then her boyfriend got out of jail so I haven't be able to go yet, my eyesight sucks but it's been perfect my whole life, I think it's because my job is on the computer and the strain fracked them up. But I am hoping I can get some SOON so I can see better and I also look cute AF in glasses so that's good.

 

[piichinu]

ye
ive been trying to get contacts but my eyes are kinda sensitive

so when im 20 something im just getting that surgery

 

[rainbow_smite]

Look at us, glasses wearing people. Awesome. One of my eyes is literally 100 points worse than my other eye so I have one that's 400 and one that's 300. So I get to say I have a "good" eye. My doctor also said my astigmatism is so bad my eyes are shaped like footballs in my sockets. Also if I'm exposed to sunlight I have to wear sunglasses or I'll get macular degeneration.

 

[Soot Sprite]

I wear contacts, I have glasses but I never wear them. They're expensive so I don't want to break them ;~;

 

[PeeBraiin]

My sight is ****
I've been wearing them since I was in second grade.
Might get surgery this upcoming year

 

[Princess]

Unfortunately so.

 

[EpicGamer12]

I wear glasses, I actually need a stronger prescription but our family's insurance only covers every 3 years. I'm sure I can manage the headaches and eye strain until the summer

 

[Javocado]

I wear glasses. I didn't wear them before because I didn't like how they looked on me, even though I needed em because my eyesight is poor. But yeah, I've learned to embrace them and I look sexy as hell and my eyes thank me.
