SXOC eyesight poll!

[Jeff]

I have major trouble seeing stuff far away but things near me (like reading etc) I'm fine.

Vote for the quality of your eyesight and post what method you use to correct it (if you can be arsed) e.g I use contact lenses. Guessing other options will include wearing glasses or just walking nearer to stuff :D

[Duff Man]

I'm lucky to be blessed with good vision both near and far :)

[Dave_S]

I have to wear glasses for driving, everything else is ok :thumbs:

Last time I had an eyetest my optician told me I had better than 20/20 vision :eek: :D :D

[StuyMac]

I have 20/20 vision :D

Though I notice a deterioration when walking home from the pub for some reason :confused: ;)

[moondog]

i'm a bit weird, myright eye is long sighted and my left eye is short sighted:eek:

[voodoo_melon]

I can see clearly up to about 8-10 inches, past that I need contacts in or glasses :(

[Wak]

I need glasses for driving and watching telly. I don't like wearing them so I bought a bigger telly. If I'm following you in the car better make sure your brakelights are nice and bright ;)

[Braintree]

Contact lenses. -1.75 in each eye, so not too bad!!

Can drive fine etc without them.

[Tenman]

heh, despite staring at VDU's all day I still have perfect vision :D

Maybee you could get a prescription windscreen, so when people looked in there rear view mirror thay would see a Giant eye driving the car :D:D

I'm long sighted by the way and its a pain in the ass.

[Cath]

I too need glasses to drive. Makes me feel old. I'm gonna put some Werthers Originals in my central Cubby Hole and save up for an S14 :p

[gaz.thomas]

Perfect vision in my left eye - single focus point about three inches from my face in my right. Not good if you fight southpaw :(

[TAC]

I said 20/20 vision :D It's half right lolol

20/20 in right eye :D Had an infection in the left one quite a few years ago so now I have a blind spot and don't really use that eye any more

[Chris_thedr]

better than 20/20 :)

20/20 means you can read the line numbered '20' on the eye chart from 20 feet away. Over here we work in metres, so we read the line numbered '6' from 6 metres away. So my vision is 6/6. This is described as "normal visual acuity". Theoretically mine is 6/5 (I can read the very bottom line (numbered '5') from 6 metres, but I don't think vision is described that way when it is good :confused: perhaps there are some ophthalmological people out there who can help...

something about being very very long sighted

[Chris_thedr]

oh and it should be noted that according to the poll there are about 10% of us who are bats and drive using sonar :eek: :eek:

You must be nearly blind!!

On another note, I don't believe there really has been bats voting in the poll... they claim they use echolocation so how did they read the screen?!? Is it some kind of tax-dodge or something?

[McRearout]

They use brail computer screens and use sonar to pick up on the lumps and bumps.
It's true, my mate told me.:D :D
