What is your eyesight like? Do you wear contacts or glasses? If so, do you wear them all of the time, or just sometimes? Are you short sighted or long sighted?

I used to have 20/20 vision until I was twelve. It was at this age I became short sighted, which makes distant objects and writing seem blurred. If I squint I can sometimes make out distant writing. I wear glasses, but not always. I wear them when I'm driving, when I'm at college, and often when I'm watching TV or when I'm watching football (to make out the names and numbers). I hope to get contacts soon, because I'd probably wear them the majority of the time. :jess:

I don't know the numbers, but I think I have a good sight. I can see what I need, and sadly what I don't too.

20/40 in my left eye.

How's a mile then? :shifty:

Nah, but my eyesight is almost as good as it gets, at least when I'm not tired.

I have perfect vision, though when I was younger I always wanted glasses. :jess:

Not sure about the numbers, but I'm short sided like you, Jess (or, nearsighted, to those of us Americanz). I have to wear them all the time. I don't mind though 'cause I kinda like 'em =]

My eyes are really screwed up, but somehow I get away without wearing glasses. I spend a lot of time looking through one eye at a time, and if I'm looking through the right eye it can make the left one go all lazy. I don't even realise I'm doing it most of the time, which is weird because it seems like the sort of thing you ought to notice.

Also I'm colourblind, but it's a very specific kind of colourblindness that only affects me when I'm trying to make a distinction betweeen very specific shades of red or green. The only time it ever seems to affect me is when I'm doing the colourblindness test. Not that I'd notice it any other time, of course...

Yet with all that said, my actual vision is pretty good. Not perfect, but good enough to read the letter chart at the optician's. And I don't have to wear glasses, which is good enough for me.

I assume I have 20/20 vision in both eyes and I don't wear glasses.

As a side note, I do have some horrible vision at night for some reason.

I have pretty terrible vision. I need to wear contacts to correct my short-sightedness.

I have the worst vision of anyone I know, besides my father, who is blind in one eye. I'm -6 in one eye, and -7 in the other, in contact prescription.

Pretty sure I'm 20/20, or at least pretty close.

My vision is fine. I think.

For the record I think glasses look good on some girls :)

I wear glasses, and I have contact lenses. I think my eyes are like... -2 or -2.5 for each eye.

I have hideous eyesight. I can barely see 6 inches in front of me without glasses. :(

I'm pretty near sighted, especially in my right eye. I can see colors and shapes, but not definition.

I can't walk around my house without my contacts because I walk into walls and doors and generally injure myself. I'm -7 in both eyes.

I think I am 20/20 in one eye and 15/20 in the other. Not too sure since this is what I remember from watching the guy scribble something down during my beginner's (driving) test two years ago. I never went to an optometrist to get it checked out.

Don't know the numbers, but I'm shortsighted. It's fairly bad these days, but it's only a couple of years ago I had excellent eyesight in my right eye :( It's not as bad as some people's, but it is declining, and if it gets to be as bad as my mom's... D:

I've had a cataract in my left eye since either birth or pre-memory, so I've never seen well out of that one.

I have next to awful vision. I can't read anything past 5 inches from my face without my glasses.

Glasses, have worn them full time since I was 13. I don't plan on getting contacts though.

Contacts, I avoid wearing my glasses because they are annoying. Though I can still see without them, just not details, so sometimes I cant tell who is walking up to me until they are close or have some distinguishing hair color.

It sucks not being able to move eh! It always gives me a real fright to realise that I'm about to hit something so I generally do something stupid like jump or try to dodge. One day I'll learn to just take the hit and be done with it. :p

My vision is terrible. I'm very near-sighted and I always have to wear my glasses. I've tried to get contacts, but I can never put them in. So I just stick with my glasses. I've been wearing them since first grade so I've grown attached to them :D.

I am not near nor far sighted. I wish I had 2000/20 vision or something. :love:

I had 20/20 vision up until recently. Now I'm short-sighted, so I wear glasses for driving (well, I should :P) and reading stuff on the board at school (not that I go anymore, uni then). I can't read stuff 5 metres away, basically :P

I don't know my eye stats, but they're bound to be good! I've never had problems seeing stuff or noticing small details.

Well, the recent checkup at the doctor showed that my eyes are -3,5 and -4 (left and right one respectively), but I wear glasses that are -2,5 for both. Not quite sharp, but still enough to walk around and see people. Text is a problem, though... I like my glasses, they're quite nice and suit me well, although I look much better without them... I've asked my parents to give me contact lenses as my birthday present, but I've heard you can't wear them for more than 5 years all in all, and I'm getting them to wear on special ocassions, like parties and stuff.

Not only is my eyesight perfect in this universe, but I'm capable of seeing into all other parallel universes. All of them are crap.

I wear contacts. They make me look better but at the same time they're a pain in the butt.

I wear glasses if I'm not leaving the flat, or if it's only for a quick trip to the co-op or something.

My eyesight is, quite frankly, terrible.

I used to wear glasses for around 4 years before I got contacts when I was around 13. I basically wear contacts every single day, but I do sometimes wear glasses at night if I can feel that my eyes are getting "tired" and need to breathe.

I literally hate wearing glasses. Now that I've become so accustomed to contacts I can really feel the glasses when I'm wearing them - y'know, little things like that you have to move your head when looking to either side or up or down.. and also, I'm rather nearsighted and so my eyes look smaller trough my glasses when I wear them, which looks dorky. If that wasn't the case I'd probably buy some cool looking glasses and wear them more often.

I haven't had my eyes checked for well over a year, maybe two, so I can't give you an exact number.

But they're really good.

I've had to get new glasses twice so far since my sight keeps getting worse.
