Glasses?

[Tricky Dicky]

Been wearing them for watching tv or using the PC for about 6 years now. Thats when I first noticed I was having to squint to read ceefax!

I've never seen you in galsses (as far as I remember).

BTW - spoken to Finch lately ? I've not seen him for ages.

I don't but probably should do, having worked in IT for over 20 years. Ought to get tested sometime.

I attended and passed a qualification in Display Screen Users asessments and if you use a monitor frequently, get an opticians appointment, if they agree that the screen has played a part in any eyesight problems you get free optical treatment, including contacts.

I wear mine all the time - not that i need to, i just like being able to see properly!

Started wearing them about 5 years ago just for reading and tv but this last year I've started needed glasses for everything.

That's the problem isn't it. I remember being told that when you wear glasses your eyes get a bit lazy and just get worse, so you end up wearing them all the time.

I'm 23 nown and have had to wear them since I was two.

Never really known life without them.

That is exactly what happened to me so I got contacts, best thing I did. Most people who brag that they have got 20:20 vision usually find that when they go to the ops' they haven't and wearing contacts is such a differance when you realise you couldn't see as well as you thought.

Ah, but then you've probably never seen me watching tv or using a pc though

Spoke to SF about a week ago - think he is due down in a couple of weeks time.

Where is the option for being as blind as a bat over long distances?

 

[colinpants]

i've just had to start wearing them too a little self-conscience though but can get by without them but things really do look sharper when i do.

You will when you're older.

Opticians call it the 45 eye. That's the age when eyes start to wear out.

 

[Gully]

Oh bollocks, my eyes are shagged already and I am only 41, been wearing glasses (contacts) since I was 16, round about the time I started watching the Albion...they drive me to distraction sometimes, might I have a case that they have also screwed my vision?

Short sighted about -0.75, I've had them about 7-8 years. Wear them all the time but not at work on PC. A pal had laser eye thingy but I've got to like wearing glasses and he looked very odd without his goggles. Tried contacts but couldn't wear them all day

 

[Beach Hut]

Been wearing them for long distance for over 10 years and have been told at some point I will need them on a string round my neck as they will hinder reading / PC screen.

The day that happens will be time for laser surgery
