A bit of a random thread, I guess but, meh.

What's your eyesight like?
Do you need glasses?
Have you noticed a deterioration in your eyesight since using the internet?
Anything about eyes, really.

Color blindness is the inability or decreased ability to see color, or perceive color differences, under normal lighting conditions


From Wikipedia.

I think it's called being color blind, no ness in the end.
My eyes are a shade of dark brown and they kinda blend in a bit with my pupil. I used to wear glasses but I got tired of the scratches, the smudges, the breaks, etc etc. I've resentally switched to contacts and they seem to help me out a bit now.

I think I win the 'worst eyes' award:
-6.50
-8.00
Peripherals are great, not colorblind, and no signs of glaucoma, but astigmatic (regular) and extremely nearsighted. Within about 6", the naked eye is much better.

Do you need glasses?

Yup, have for over 12 years.

My prescription is two sets of lenses glued together.

Mine are the same way. It's for astigmatism.

I got tired of the scratches, the smudges, the breaks, etc etc.

I don't even notice the dirt anymore. I haven't had any breaks (other than rarely a loose screw falls out) .

For the most part, yes. With me...every colour has another colour I can confuse it with. My worst is blue and purple..unless it is a light blue (like sky blue)..I cannot tell which is which definitively to save my life

In your context it is...but in the definition GoH pulled it is correct.

My eyesight is alright, though I can't read things clearly 10-20 feet away. Where I'm sitting in my room now, my tv is about 8 feet away, if I browse through the channels I won't be able to read the descriptions clearly. I have glasses, but I don't wear them. They just don't feel comfortable.

that is why you should wear them for a few mins before you buy them matrix.

I did. They work, but I don't like wearing them. The thing that touches my nose irritates me, it's not too tight or anything, I just don't want it there. My sunglasses on the other hand, I like wearing them. They don't have that squishy nose thing.

I have 20/20 in both eyes. I can read the bottom line on an eye chart.

I wear contacts because I can't see far away at all... I lived for years when I was younger thinking everybody saw things blurry.
