Here's a quick vision test. What do you see? https://thumbs.gfycat.com/GorgeousLi...restricted.gif |

This is 100% me. Try wearing a contact in just one eye for a couple of days. I used to change eyes daily, but I've just been wearing one contact in my right eye for well over a decade now. I can see things far away and up close -- and at half the price. |
Used to be legit 20/10, then I got shingles - on my head - and it got so far into my right eye the doc feared encephalitis… eventually got over it, but I could tell my right eye was pretty compromised while renewing my drivers license several years ago
So now I’m just 20/20 :D |

About two years ago I lost the ability to see close with my regular glasses. Now I have prescription readers. I now have four pairs of regularly used glasses:
Regular glasses for everyday use. Readers for computer work Exercise glasses for runs Sunglasses for solar protection |
Getting Lasik surgery about 15 years ago was one of the best things I've ever done. Never been back to the eye doctor, and zero deterioration in my vision since I had it done. You can have one eye set for close up and one set for distance and your brain supposedly seamlessly makes the switch, but I had both of mine set for distance since I play a lot of golf. That's where I really notice it, on the golf course. There, and when I go to Rockies games at Coors. I swear I can see facial expressions on people sitting across the stadium from me. It's like laser vision. Before I had it done I couldn't see far away at all without contacts or glasses. Everything was just a blur. Now I can see like a freaking hawk.
Need readers to see anything within arm's length clearly, but that's no problem at all. Can't believe I put pieces of plastic in my eyes every day from the age of 13 until I had the surgery. What a pain in the ass that was. Could not recommend Lasik more highly. For me it was truly life-changing. |

It was disfiguring, the right side of my head was swollen like a melon… still carry several scars and have what the doc said would probably be lifelong itchy head/nerve pain over ten years later |
I was nearsighted from age 25-35 but it fixed itself somehow. I dunno.

The night I first went to the ER, the head nurse gave me 4 morphine shots in about as many hours, maybe less… and that was the ONLY good thing about that whole deal, morphine puts you on cloud 99 hahaa |

I've had the flipdown frames in the past and they worked well too, though. I guess it's just a matter of taste or timing. |
