Ha, you all suck. My vision is so bad, they told me I was 'off the charts' when I asked if I was 20/400 or whatnot.
Things only get good definition when they're within 3" of my face. I can barely make out letters 8" high at 10 feet if I squint (and I already know what they say)
My visioned worsened so badly during my teens that the doctor was shocked that my eyes had degraded over a full diopter (or something like that) in a year. Luckily, they've slowed down significantly--I've had these glasses for four years or so, and there's only been a little change. I've put on old pairs of glasses, and been stunned when they made absolutely no difference to my vision.

Well, I've got 20/19...and I'm the only person in my family not to wear glasses, also. They all hate me. Hope my vision survives intact...
And it really sucks to lose your glasses. Hope you find them again.
Tip: Look in places they shouldn't be...

Q: How do you play religious roulette?
A: You stand around in a circle and blaspheme and see who gets struck by lightning first.

Mine are mostly rectangular, but the corners are rounded. I used to wear aviator-style, but I was informed they looked bad on me.Shinova wrote:Anyone here wear rectangular lenses for glasses?
