Default LD needs teh glasses

Yea, so a while ago, I went to the doc for a yearly checkup for winter sports.

I mentioned that my eyesight was getting worse.

He told my mom to make an appointment.

She hasn't.

Now, last week, we had to get our eyes checked in Gym. My eyesight was bad.

Today, they had to check me again, AND IT GOT WORSE!

Now, they have to make a huge deal about it, and I have to get glasses for farsightedness (is that a word?).

Does anyone else have glasses, and if so, do they suck?

lol foureyes

Glasses probably don't suck once you're used to them, though that'll take time.

I'm lucky - both of my parents have glasses, but I've got excellent vision.

I have glasses since I was 7 and im 17 now. I wore them like a nice little boy until around 11-12 and I got fed up of them and ever since then I havn't worn them regularly and in the last 2 years my eyesight was REALLY poor and it went back to normal and then it got poor and it went to normal..

It seems to me I only wear them when I really notice that I do and in tons of pain...

Get contacts for everyday use like school and shit and keep glasses for at home when nobody can see you or care.. then eventually they'll be fine and you wont need them anymore.

Then that is nearsightedness.

My eyes are horrible. They started going bad in 9th grade. I finally got glasses during that summer, I think. They take some getting used to... It's CRAZY how much of a difference there is. I was so shocked. EVERYTHING looked different: the school, the carpeting, the tv, people... I could actually see peoples' faces in school!

I have contacts now too... but I hardly ever wear them since I'm low on them and uhhh we don't have eye insurance anymore... (in fact I don't have health insurance right now since my dad's company moved and he's been layed off -__-).

My eyes apparently were bad but not bad enough to the point where I put on my glasses and im like "WOW OMFG DID WE USED TO HAVE THAT CARPET? AND WAS IT REALLY GREEN!?!?"

For me it looked the same because my left eye is in charge and its healthy and my right eye is weaker so it tends to look the same even though it doesn't...kind of thing.

But yeah if I try to walk around like I used to for fun with my left eye shut and using my right eye its like almost being blind I cant tell what is what or read ....

Freaks picture = best ever, hahahaha.

Glasses aren't too bad, I've worn them for....probably about 9 years now and I don't even notice them anymore. They're kinda weird for the first week then you get used to them.

Same exact thing.

My left eye is still 20/20, yet my right eye is like, 20/80 or something.

I need glasses and have them. I just don't wear them.

I'm nearsighted so I cant see far, but really everything is fine to what I can see so I complain about wearing them for no reason.

I say contacts or don't wear them at all.

i've worn glasses/contacts since i was 10 (10 years). without the aid of corrective lenses, i wouldn't be able to see my television that is 6 feet away from me.

and, of course, my eyesight continues to get worse. all i want is for it to stay the same so i can get Lasic.

If you plan on getting lazer eye surgery don't. There's a higher percent chance of ruining your eyes rather than fixing them. Only get that kind of surgery if you have nothing to lose and it has been acknowledged.

I don't exactly know what the exact vision I have but I know that my left eye is prefectly normal and my right eye is fucked and the more time I waste not having my glasses on the sooner I'll be going blind literally.
