<p>Yes, sigh..... </p>
<p>My vision has deteriorated.... I was ranged in the two's, and now my sight is ranged in the four's, according to my ophthalmologist. I loathe waves' from computers, television, microwaves, Mp3, etc. From now, I will be consuming salad bar's for school lunch, with the austere, dull milk. abviaiuewhafuigrgvigvuwihoiwefjklnch, rant terminated....</p>
<p>Lol, I'm in the 4s too. I always swore my eyes wouldn't be worse than my father's but nonetheless, it happened :[. </p>
<p>I knew it was bad when they didn't have my prescription to try on contacts in the store :[ lol.</p>
<p>WOW, really? Thats odd. My vision is actually worse than my father's..</p>
<p>Yeah, it sucks. Especially being so young. We'll be legally blind w/o glasses and contacts by the age of 25 lol.</p>
<p>I'm actually in the fives right now, and I know some people in the sixes and sevens.</p>
<p>im in the fours
i stare waay too much at the computer</p>
<p>Sorry if I sound stupid, but what numbers are you referring to? On my prescription there are lots of different numbers.</p>
<p>^^^
Yeah, I know...I've never had glasses/contacts. I actually have 15-15 vision, so I have no need for glasses.</p>
<p>God I'm blind. Somehow, due to the inefficiency of school nurses, the first time I got glasses was 6th grade-and the doctor said it was the "one of the worst he had seen without glasses". my notes from before my glasses made no sense b/c I would just copy random words down---luckily it did get me in focus to listen to teachers more than copy (good skill, I guess). </p>
<p>Also, my vision got like much worse in the last month, I hope they have contacts for me when I go next month!</p>
<p>I use my old glasses to improve my vision (cause i broke my new ones) =O It works!</p>
<p>First got glasses in 1st grade w/ a -1/2. Flash forward 12 years to see me with ultra-thin lenses thicker than most people's normal glasses. I'm rapidly approaching -10 (now at -9.5) :(</p>
<p>i have horrible vision too.... except for some reason i hate contacts so i just wear my glasses</p>
<p>To the people with higher than a -6.00 is it hard to find contacts?</p>
<p>Back when I wore contacts (<em>feels old</em>) they weren't hard to find. They were quite uncomfortable, though...</p>
<p>have any of you guys considered laser eye surgery? i think i want to get it when i get older.</p>
<p>I have one eye that is fine(19)and the other eye is "50+"...forgot actual value In elementary school the guys doing the exams would think I was joking when I would tell them to forget it I cannot read anything on that.</p>
<p>I am fine without glasses thought I get tired faster. One thing that is really inconvenient is that I think I have very little depth perception without them. Of course, you don't want to wear glasses playing football but man catching can get tricky.</p>
<p>^^ to me, its scary
i mean, ur conscious the whole time
and u see it happening
my teacher had it and she said they numb ur eyes with eye drops, cut slits in ur eyes, and then a laser gets sent through and ur temporarily blinded
yikes</p>
<p>i think you can be sedated if you want to be. but its such a minor surgery that most people dont choose sedation.</p>
<p>my sister did it, and she is sooo glad that she did. she was legally blind before, but she has perfect vision now.</p>
<p>Umm.. I'm in the 6-7s, LOL. I blame it on bad genes :( Rents want me to get LASIK, but I'd rather pop in contacts every morning, which only takes a second anyway and is practically second nature to me, than risk going blind or something similarly terrifying.</p>
<p>With laser eye surgery do they hold your head still? I mean when they're going in to cut your frickin eye, I donno about anybody else, but I would at least flinch... a lot.</p>
