    Dancing Chocobo How's Your Eyesight?

    Mine's pretty terrible. I'm nearsighted like whoa and anything more than about six inches from my face is blurry. To fix it, I've worn glasses since I was about 14 years old. I went through a stint of a few years where I wore contacts, which was nice because then I didn't have any glasses to smudge up, but then I got tired of putting them in every morning (and taking them out every night) so I just went back to glasses. (People tell me I look better with glasses anyway, so... yeah.)

    How about you guys?

    Pretty bad. I've worn glasses since I was ten. I'm thinking of switching to contacts so I can wear sunglasses and get creative with bangs without looking silly.

    a bit near-sighted. Got -1 on both my eyes. I wear glasses when I watch TV and when I'm otherwise concentrating on something.

    Left eye is 20/200 and the right is normal. The doctor calls it natural bifocals, and that it'll be a good thing years from now.

    Both eyes are basically terrible. Short sighted and the blur begins at roughly 15cm distance. I can't judge it well right now as I've not got my contacts in. I look forward to someday getting laser surgery. =|

    EDIT: I got glasses at around seven years old. Started using contacts at around 22.

    I am terribly, terribly near-sighted. I have worn glasses since I was 9, and am completely unable to function without my glasses or contacts in. I can read without glasses only if I hold the book so close that it is only a few inches from my nose.

    Same as WesLEY

    I considered getting pew pew surgery in 2011 but instead I spent that money to get drunk in NYC

    Now I don't think I'll get it until 2013, if at all.

    Nearsighted terribleness. It's really sad, without my glasses I once mistook my penis for a hairless child having an epileptic attack. We worked it out though.

    Without my glasses, I'm worthless. I wear contacts too, but I much prefer glasses because my eyes are very sensitive so contacts are quite literally a pain.

    Oh man, so far, only one of us have near perfect vision, and it ain't me. I'm like the majority of us, with poor vision that is only corrected by wearing glasses, which I had worn since I was 9 or 10.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    I have 20/20 vision and have never had to wear glasses. However, when I stare at the light for too long, I see dots...

    I'm something like -1.75 without my contacts in, so I wear my contacts all the time.
